I wouldnt call a car that can trap 108-110 off the showroom floor a joke.....Yes they are outperformed by the cars they are competing against, but its still not a slow car by any means.

Soo much hatred towards the SS. Its a beautiful cruising car. I love its looks, power, etc. About the weight, every new car is getting heavier. Even us Cobra owners have a heavy pig compared to the NE Cobras and pre 99 SN95 Mustangs.

I'll admit that I wasn't a big fan of them when they came out, but they've been growing on me lately. I wouldn't mind having one.

Well, I would be willing to bear the heavy burden of taking that mystichrome off your hands so you could free up some space for the ss. It would be tough, but I think I could manage. I know I would be doing you a huge favor, but think nothing of it. Its no trouble. Really.

I was merging onto the freeway today as a shiny orange SS drove past. When I went to merge I heard the upshift and he took off. I paid no mind because I was in no mood after a long day at work. We drive through the toll road and by this time I was about 2 cars behind him and he hammers it leaving the EZ pass. I smiled when I saw his license plates "YULWIN". I took his plates as a sarcastic challenge to my manhood. I caught him at the light and was treated to the typical I drive a cool car and its fast and I know it personality. I asked him what was done and he said "Stuff". I responded with an equally cool guy line like "Oh yeah? sweet :dw:
This guy is a douche.

Check Traction control...its off
Im good.
3k rpm launch, a bit on wheel spin and put a car on him. By second gear i had another half a car.
Speed limit was 60 and that was enough for me. I dont need anymore excessive speeding tickets. Regardless, he never drove past my window and turned off shortly after.


This was my first run in my cobra since I got it last week and it felt good.

:beer:
Good race, but you don't have to drive above the 60 speed limit in order to get pulled over for racing.

There is life after the Cobra, while I loved my Cobra the Camaro grew on me instantly. It's a great car and with very small amount of mods it's just as fast as my pullied boosted Cobra and it doesn't need 14 lbs of boost to do it. :)

I still have my gripes that prevent me from wanting one but I still drive the 2011 sittting here in the parking lot when the keys are tossed my way. It's not a horrible car after all.... and fat cars need love too.

All I had to do is sit inside one. I wanted out the second I closed the door. I don't see how someone could "drive" that car. :nonono:

I REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted one when they came out...but then the new 5.0 came out and I changed my mine, lol. IMO the new Maro is the sickest looking new car on the market when set up right. Completely murdered out, lowered a little and you have a damn sexy car.

^ Gotta have the stripes.


Shame its so much easier to make the 5.0 fast, meanwhile we're stuck with this cross-platform shares overweight pig of a car with a glass rearend. At least LS motors are cheap to mod.
