)

The car feels completely different compared to the Camaro (especially when the Camaro was modded). The Camaro would just flat out slam you into the seat when you floored. The Cobra is stronger but it is smoother. There is sno slamming in the seat. You knew how fast you were going in the Camaro, you could feel it. In the Cobra, I think I'm doing 50 and I'm doing 90. Both are great cars

Oh I cant wait for when the Cobra slams me.....I havent downshifted yet and nailed it. That day will come soon though. Hopefully the downshift to 3rd on the freeway will feel as good as I hope it does.
The Camaro had airlid, longtubes, true duals and a custom tune.

After reading this thread, I have two things to say:
1) Congrats on the new ride. You cannot bag on a Cobra, they are fockin sweet and they move.
2) Unit is a post *****

The Cobra Ebony Clearcoat. I actually just ordered a SLP loudmouth for it. The stock exhaust is so freakin quiet. I debated between SLP, MAC and Flowmaster for a while. I just wanted something different compared to what everyone has around here
