Damn, I didnt even realize that the Cobra was going to continue to live on, I thought 04 was it....!!!! I thought the shelby was the replacement, thats interesting....now, I keep thinking that the 05(06 ,or 07?)is going to look like the 04, now im all confused...

I am still trying to like the Shelby, but now you guys are putting ideas in my head that Ford may actually make a Cobra with that V10? :) Dude, if that is built, I most defenitely want one...

ps. I know this is probably something that does not need to be said, but I thought that the 04 Cobra was the pinnacle in refinement for mechanics AND for aesthetics...the car is fast and beautiful. The Shelby front end doesnt turn me on, the rear end doesnt turn me on, the hood is kinda plain and the hood vents dont really seem *cool* looking....lastly, there seems to be a lack of curves to the profile of the car...alittle too boxy lookin...thats too many things against the car...the only thing i really like about the car is the supercharged 5.4L motor with Ford GT derivatives....:) Anyhoo...there it is.

I agree with you 100%, except for the fact that this thread is old, and its talking about the Shelby GT500, not a Cobra roadster or whatever you were thinkin but yea, 03-04 was an awesome car. The new one just isn't as "awe-inspiring" except for the engine and refinement.
