That isn't Ford's GT-R...it is someone's aftermarket version. Steeda or someone...it's a major aftermarket corporation. It's a purpose built track car and not street legal. It has a cammed 5.0 engine. It's filling the gap of not having a recent Cobra R. The GT-R and Cobra R are purpose built road racing cars

ok, Cobra Engine breakdown:

93 5.0 SOHC
93R 5.0 SOHC
94-95 5.0 SOHC
95R 5.8 SOHC
96-01 DOHC 4.6
03-04 DOHC 4.6 Eaton blower
07(sale late 2006 5.4 DOHC whipple blower)

The front of the new Mustangs is sooooooo badass but they totally fvcked up the rear. The front is very aggressive and the rear is like smiling at you..... but i'd sport a Cobra any day of the week.

If you do get a Cobra and get some add ons I would get a solid rear.
Pulley, full exhaust, chip and you are looking at a cool 450 HP.

Any more than 450 hp the stock S/C would over spin so most opt for the Kenne Bell.

The car truely is amazing, it accepts mods and responds to them like no other.

The cars engine is bullet proof, a guy made a 9 second pass on stock internals and a stock block.

The IRS is not weak. Its weak if you plan on making 9 second passes but its just fine if you are looking at a 11 second passes. People harp on the IRS all the time but in reality its not gonna take a **** on you like the Camaros and T/A's.

i know this has nothing to do with it, but for that price id rather take a k20a2 swapped cybernations stage 2 turbo 7thgen. it may not bas as fast as a modded kobra, but dont really dig the sound of the supercharger.
