#30 of 97 black ice by kurtamaxxguy Feb 18, 2005 (2:21 pm)
Given the comment about Edmunds test of the Cobra was it was like driving on black ice.... Wonder how long before we see these in drifting competitions?

They need to develop some sort of AWD option. I know that's completely against everything the pony car stands for though.   Heck, then come out with a new car, and put the technology into it! High hp and AWD! Replies to this message: quicksilver3 (Feb 22, 2005 6:53 pm)

Replying to: boomn29 (Feb 22, 2005 7:59 am) That wouldn't work. Ford's marketing plan is to offer existing proven technology in new and exciting designs, all whilst keeping the price lower than other vehicles in their comparitive class. Adding AWD, higher computer control systems for said AWD system, new suspensions, etc etc etc...would add greatly to the price of the M-SVT...

There was an article in Motorweek about the 2006 Mustang Cobra. It has 550 horse. AMAZING!

Sheesh I think my thoughts of ordering the 05 GT Vertible next month have now changed thanks to the new 2006 Ford Shelby Cobra GT500... completely awesome!   http://www.mwstangs.com/ourpics/News/shelbycob07/Shelbycob.htm

Replying to: svtcobra1110 (Feb 11, 2005 5:32 pm) First of all the M5 is not a sports car. A sports car, by definition has 2 seats and an open top. Also there is no chance that the Mustang could beat the M3 in the quarter. For the record the 2005 Mustang GT, with 300 hp and 315 lb/ft of torque does the standing quarter in 14.1 where as the current M3 without the SMG gear box (Which is faster than any human) with it's 333hp and 262 lb/ft of torque did it in 13.1. Not to mention the fact that the M3 would smoke the Mustang through the twisties. The next generation may be quick, but the next gen M3 due out by late next year will boast a V8 with at least 400hp. Ford wants to compete with the M3, good luck. They may want to move their operations to Europe, maybe them they'll be able to produce 105 naturally aspirated hp per liter. They can't even do it with a blower. It would be nice if Ford put in some effort instead of resurecting dead designs I.E. the GT, the new mustang, and the Cobra concept. They need to take a lesson from VWAG and come up with something origional. (VWAG stands for Volkswagon Automotive Group, for the majority of people on this post, who apparently know nothing about cars. NASCAR is not racing try watching LeMans.

Replying to: eurocarswin (Mar 24, 2005 2:47 pm) Here is the problem that you may not be thinking about. Your talking about a BMW M5($58,000-80,000) vs a Ford Mustang Cobra ($32,000-40,000). Your spending at around $20,000-40,000 more for a M5. If I could afford a M5 I would most likely get one. Ford is more the less trying to appeal to the ones like me who can afford the payments. That is also why they manage to sell so many Mustangs. I have a 1998 Cobra which I have invested roughly $20,000 into. Now since I have spent more money on my Cobra I would demolition a M5 whether it be through the turns or the straight away. Me pushing 700rwhp (825rwhp on the spray) and having my suspension upgraded would just not be right if I was lined up with a M5. My main point being is that Manufactors appeal to different crowds with different models. Replies to this message: venomous98cobr (Apr 03, 2005 6:42 am)
