from Autoweek:http://autoweek.com/news.cms?newsId=102047

this quote sticks out:

By the way, Thai-Tang has a message for those of us bummed out about the live rear axle: “Drive the car first,” he says, “and you’ll see it’s a nonissue, because the chassis is dialed in so well.”

Re: full cobra pics

I like the rear but the front is really ugly to me. The shape of both grills looks wrong and looks like a Cobra II, which is not a good thing.

Cobra

This is one of the best statements I've ever read in this forum. Short, sweet, and makes a great point.

I think the glaring inability of GM to respond to the Mustang in a timely manner is the white elephant in the room none of us want to talk about.

The front is pretty much the same as the concept car from a little while back. Pretty much the same one from the GT-R car. You didn't like either of those??? I thought you did.

Cobra
Bull, the Cobra II and king cobra were nice looking cars. The performance was crap but the styling was good.


That Dash is sweet. Covered with leather its very similar to the f150s . I love that stiching.

Ford SVT Shelby Cobra Mustang GT500

Did they leave anything out? It would make me consider a Mustang...

One guy even says, "thank you ford you have done it again!". When was the last time anyone heard that around here?
Unless GM drops a bombshell, I don't expect a RWD performance car from Chevy before 2009.

I like the GT concept a good bit more than the production car and the GT-R had some things that I liked but the overall proportions look very odd to me. I wish they would chop about a foot off the rear overhang, that would help a great bit.

I still see a good bit of Cobra II in that car. One reason for this might also be that from the windshield foward, the car new Cobra is very busy and then the side is very tame, or even dull. This creates a strange visual effect, and I see the same in the Cobra II.

Hey it could have been the:

Henry Ford Special Vehicles Team Carrol Shelby Cobra Mustang Grand Touring Five Hundred.

Which would make for very interesting side stickers actually.

Tons of big pics below. This car is gorgous. I can't wait to see one in person.
