#3 of 97 Ford Cobra Concept by boomn29 May 21, 2004 (3:18 pm)
This looks more like a Shelby, so I might be posting this in the wrong thread.   http://roadandtrack.com/article.asp?section_id=9&article_id=1- 195   600hp   "...boasts a 600 horsepower 6.4-liter V-10 and tips the scales at a fairly lithe 3100 lbs. with a 50/50 weight distribution"

Replying to: stang22 (Jun 02, 2004 6:12 am) I don't have a handy reference but I remember reading Ford plans a series of models after the base and GT coupes come out. Of course, convertibles will follow soon. I think there's going to an upgrade package coming similar to the current Mach I package. And within about a year an SVT Cobra with a supercharged engine at or above 400 HP will be offered. Replies to this message: m3baby (Dec 30, 2004 12:01 am)
#6 of 97 That's not Mustang SVT Cobra by shink Jul 02, 2004 (8:07 pm)
I think the car you are posting is the Ford Cobra, not the Ford Mustang Cobra. They indicate it's the successor to the Ford GT, not the Ford Mustang GT.

Replying to: stang22 (Jun 02, 2004 6:12 am) Hey... There was an article in Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords, I believe, about the model year 06 OR 07 Mustang Cobra SVT. 500 hp with the help of a supercharger will be the battle cry of all of us Cobra & performance wakkos! I'll search my Mustang Mag files... I get three different mags! (I own a 2004 Mustang Mysticobra Convertible... very sweet!) Matt Replies to this message: mustlvr (Sep 22, 2004 10:06 am)

Replying to: revmatt (Jul 28, 2004 8:07 pm) Word from Ford is it will be offered in fall of 06 as a 07 model. Details are sketchy, but it will be supercharged.
#9 of 97 Shelby or SVT Mustang by jae5 Oct 25, 2004 (3:05 pm)
Not trying to start anything here, but would there be need of an SVT Mustang Cobra if the Shelby is produced? Or vice versa? Would the Shelby be built in-house, like the 69-70 or would it be like the 65 - 68 models?   And if both are produced, which one would be higher in the pecking order, the Shelby or the Cobra? OR do we dare hope it'll be a repeat like it was in 69 - 70, where there were Boss, Shelby and Mach I ponies galloping around.   Also, which one would most likely be relegated as another Mustang package, like the Mach 1?   Any thoughts?
#10 of 97 Shelby vs Mustang Cobra by corsicachevy Oct 26, 2004 (6:08 am)
Just to clear things up - these are two different cars. Acutally, very different cars. Fortunately for the buying public they occupy two different segments and therefore can coexist together.   The two-seater Shelby is intended to be the successor to the GT and promises to be an even better performer. Can't wait.   The Mustang Cobra should arrive next year and will boast and independent rear suspension, bigger brakes, lower ride height, +400hp and a six speed transmission. Ford claims to have the BMW M3 as a target. Aim high. Replies to this message: boomn29 (Oct 26, 2004 6:59 am) jae5 (Oct 27, 2004 10:05 am)

Replying to: corsicachevy (Oct 26, 2004 6:08 am) Wow, targeting the M3... That means they might put it on a bit of a diet I hope?? That's my biggest concern with Mustangs, is the fact they are a bit bulky.   If they're going after the M3, expect another price hike as well!

Replying to: corsicachevy (Oct 26, 2004 6:08 am) I am VERY aware they are two different cars, that's not what I was asking about. I guess I wasn't clear enough for you..Shelby Mustang vs Mustang Cobra, not Shelby Cobra vs Mustang Cobra, if that helps. Plus, who wants an VW-Audi-fied cobra anyway and who would compare a Shelby Cobra to a Mustang Cobra?   I do think Coletti (spelling?) is wrong again in thinking the M3 is this car's target (same statement was made when the 390-horse came out). People buying M3s are aware there is a hi-po Mustang out there, but for the most part, a Mustang is not even on their radar screen or shopping list. M3 buyers really aren't cross-shopping Mustangs, even the Cobra. Because again, at the end of the day, the feeling is "it's just a Mustang". M3 competitors are the S4 and the like, not a Mustang.
