I guess we all shall see. One of the managers @ the Ford dealership said he had a down payment on one.

expect the 4v 5.4 found in the concept lightning. the cobra and lightning both come back in 06. there might be a focus and explorer as well. expect more power and torque than the viper and z06.
Expect a bigger price tag than the viper and Z06 too. I swear it seems like the big wigs in Detroit think that only the wealthy drive muscle cars these days.

It's all rumors of course, but from what I've heard

2007 Z06 6.0L V8 @525 HP N/A $58k
2007 Cobra 5.4L V8 @515 HP S/C $45-50k

apparently the chevy people didn't like ford upping the cobra hp to above the c6 z06's baseline so they are aiming for more. I just hope that ford includes the aftercooler feature on the concept lightning, 50 HP for 30-45 secs at the push of a button. NAWS beware. The z06 will be running at 11 compression apparently .

Anyways there's no telling if this stuff is true or not until the sob's roll onto the lots and that's still a ways off

and who knows if the cobras estimated power is at the wheels or crank. ford has been bad about that lately. expect a few grand more than the price of an 03 cobra, around $40-45k.

$45k would be a steal for that much stock horsepower compared to the Z06 and especially the $80k viper. I always love a good competition between manufacturers, the buyer always wins!!!

I was thinking the same thing, you can't beat that price for that much power.

I thought that since carol shelby owns the name "cobra" that they were gonna cal it the "shelby" instead. I like "shelby" much more cuz its retro baby.

Well, actually they might have the cobra and the shelby. Who knows.

ey will have the shelby and the cobra. they won't just kill the cobra name off without a thought. i would guess the shelby would have a variant of the 03 cobra engine, say 450 hp. the cobra will still be top dog in the ford stable. except maybe the 05 bodied R model.
