Default 2000 Cobra?

So I was Driving home from class this morning and this dude (another student)in his black cobrawho ended up drivinbehind me gave it a little rev at the light. "I dont have a chance in hell...but it should be fun"I thought. We both turned left and ended up next to eachother in two different lanes. We were both kinda takin it easy...goin about 30-35mph. So I figured if I'm gonna lose to this guy I might as well make the first move. SoI stomped on it hard. He took off too. I don't know if the guy was takin it easy but it was pretty much even for about 500-600 feet until I had to slow down to avoid hitting the car in front of me. Does that sound right? Theories?

it definitally wasnt a 2000 cobra....those R's are very rare and 99% are on a track somewhere, and it would be red with a huge rear spoiler and front air dam. You may have run into a 99 or 01...or some fake badging like i see all to often in my area

I know about those Cobra R's...those are some wicked cars...it might have been a 99 or 01 then but thisguy had the whole package...wheels...rear bumper...badges...hood...the sound of the exhaust...all sounded like cobra to me.But like you said...it could have been a GT converted into a cobra look alike or something...still I wonder.

It's super rare. Odds are definatly against it being a cobra-r.
