Not saying you cant ask questions. Just SLIGHT research and it will be pretty obvious.

this a probably a stupid question as I don't like mustangs so I have not really done any research on them (I just know not to try and race one as I will get smoked) but the new GT500 is the replacement of Shebly's cobra versions from years previous? I saw a grey one yesterday for the first time in san diego at Oggis pizza and the owner got mad at me for taking pics of with my phone lol. its looks pretty cool in person

I believe so. By the way, my roomate owns a 12sec 05 stang. He taught me not to worry about running a Mustang and said most sound faster than they really are. This is of course, NOT referring to a Cobra, etc. The regular GT isnt an issue depending on what it has. V6 isnt even a question.

In the end, most people dont realize the Z isnt bred to be a 1/4 mile beast like a big V8. We are a maxed out V6 while the Mustang is an "underpowered" V8. By underpowered I mean they arent maxed out of the factory and are actually seeing less power than they are capable of stock. Simple mods like bolt ons will have MUCH more response to the cars unlike ours. However, throw me on a road course against one and it will be a massacre. Sports cars IMO are a balanced car, not built for one thing.

Two different monsters here. This is said best from what I read (very limited btw). These cars are meant for 2 different purposes and they both do it quite well.

Word. Like people said the Cobra isnt called a Terminator for nothing. I am actually HIGHLY considering it to be my next ride....
