Default 2000 Cobra R vs 03 Cobra vs G8 GT on Spray

Took another trip to Mexico last night, it was a cold one down there.


Oh, and before anyone asks, here is proof that the R is real hahah

Shitty phone pic, but you get the idea. Hopefully I can get some soon with the Nikon.

Cobra/G8 are the same as the last thread.

Good vids. Why did he swap the Cobra R front bumper for a stock 99/01 Cobra front bumper...? I always liked them, rare car for sure.

It's the same bumper guy. The diffuser is detachable. It is off, the thing sticks out so far it drags everything.

I actually like the look of them. They are different, and I love it.

The car is loud as hell now, sounds so good.

I think the aesthetic that throws me off the most about the Cobra R is the wing on the back. Damn thing is so tall. It's a Fast n Furious wing lmao. I also didnt know the Cobra R had a 5.4l in it until I just did some research on it. Very nice.

My clutch is slipping bad.

The g8 can't catch traction OFF spray (as shown in other video)

It was 30 degrees

Form follows function. Adding truly functional aerodynamic aids to a regular car (as opposed to a car designed with downforce in mind from the get-go) can get a bit extreme/gaudy at times, but sometimes that is cool in and of itself.
