I posted it in the lounge but I should have posted it here. Good find none the less. I'm psyched about this car.
Here's the official story from Ford

That Cobra is a Monster.

I am saving, saving, and saving. If no Camaro or Firebird I think this should fit me nicely.

$40,000 roughly?

I wonder if they'll release a non-supercharged version and call it the GT350

If you look at the official press release from Ford, it is a 2005 model year! Not 2007!

The info that I got was from my friend...but I read through the press release that Red posted and found this:

"A production version of the GT500 will go on sale in 2006..."

I think there's only two things about it that I really don't like, and hopefully they'll fix them before it goes into production. First off the side mirrors have to go...they're straight off the GT and look like they originally were designed for a Ranger or F-150. Second, the speedo only goes to 160. They should have a 200mph speedo in that thing. Other than that I think it looks awesome. I'll always keep my TA, but the next muscle car I add to my collection will be one of these if GM doesn't get their **** together. I suspect even if they do release a Camaro/redesigned GTO it probably won't have more power than the base Vette. You're only a couple thousand in mods away from 600 HP in this car. Screw you GM.
