[QUOTE="jedeyeben, post: 1618826, member: 18449"] I was just so impressed with how well it drove, sounded and looked, for a 6er. Not to offend anyone, but you know how it is when you get into a v6 after driving something stronger and it is just like, "yeah it's a six". I just didn't have that feeling with this one. I drove it down the street and got on it a little going over the overpass and, man, it really just felt great. Handling seemed top notch, touchy but not to touchy. Quiet too. Like, hey no rattle trap! Very low road noise. And I love the way that when you open the door the window goes down a quarter inch or so, then back up once the door is closed to fit into a slip over seal around it. That is a real quality feature if you want to keep the wind noise down as the car goes down the road. The only thing that I saw that could be missing, added or what ever way you want to look at it, was that with the new body length and wheel base there was just a little too much plain space between the back of the front wheelwell and the front of the door. It possibly could have used an emblem, small, not too gaudy but there. Like the GT has but maybe a small pony. IMO I got a new Mustang Monthly with the redfire gt on the cover when I got home and thougth, wow I just took one like that for a drive. Kind of cool. Don't get me wrong, I love my Cobra and have no intentions of getting rid of it anytime soon. I just can't wait to see what they come out with to take it to the next step as far as a Cobra, Shelby, Bullitt or what ever they do. The aftermarket and performance enthusiats are going to have a field day with this one. There is just SO much potential. :thumbsup: [/QUOTE]
