I like the overall loos of it. I just think that they need to work on the front grill of the car. Seems like its missing something, or its too big.

As for the wheels, I also agree that they look somewhat like the Z06 wheels. But then again I think most dual 10 spoke wheels would.

You guys are brutal!

Ricksws6 - I went 11.29 with only 460rwhp in my 03 Cobra.

I'll wait for pricing on these. If it's under $40K I'll own one.

Keep the iron coming out of Detroit, who cares what it looks like. As long as the cars are still manufactured, maybe GM will get off their asses and bring back the Camaro.

i think that th 03 and 04 cobras are by far the best thing to come from ford but i do like this new cobra. now the new mustang looks hideous. the only thing that i dont like about the new cobra is the wheels. hmmmm i wonder what a set of 03 cobra 5 spokes would look like on it?

For $40-45k I'll be curious to see what the quality of the interior is like. The pre-production Mustang I saw at an auto show 2 yrs ago was gorgious. The '05 is nice but no where near as cool as the pre-production one and the interior looks very cheap and plasticy.

GT500 is an old Shelby car. Wasn't it the Shelby Mustang GT500 that was in that movie where they stole all those high-end cars. Forget the name, Angelina Jolie was in it. That car was badass.

Even if the car is really nice in and out it just kind of sucks to have a car that most people can't differentiate from a $20k Mustang, especially chicks.

it ok, i dont like the color. If it was in a darker tone it should look better. It should be quick to but would like to see the curb weight.....450hp, should be in the 12'z maybe 11'z with a good driver....

well, maybe.....i do agree that no matter wat emblem is on it, anything muscle out of detroit is alright with me,

"Gone in 60 seconds" Was the name of the movie you are refering to. I'm not sure if the original had a GT500 as well.
