Default 8 minute vid of new gt500

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYN2J...20Cobra%202007

guy narating is a total tool. glad to see 485 hp but in a 3900lb car? that hog wont be able to get out of its own way. engine bay is tighter than a whales *** too. i do like the fron and rear though, imo need some side skirts and better rims.

I'm curious to see what will happen with a Whipple at 19psi on a GT500.
That'll let me know if the car is worth the $$$.

I think I like the looks of the terminator better, but I did see a vert GT500 and it looks much better in person than in that vid. I am already jealous of that motor.

Haha, that guy is a total tool. Talk about a tight fit. Im sure the new Cobras will still move quite nicely even with the 3900 wieght.
