A friend of mine's dad has a red 04 vert here in riverside, he say's it is an "R" upgrade from svt, and has paper work from svt showing the "R" upgrade and specs but his is the only one i've seen/heard of... Do you guys think its real? The car put down 486.5rwhp "bone stock"... :bowdown:

i think its bullshit. maybe some shady dealership added a few aftermarket parts and called it an "R" or something

It's not from a shady dealership, it was a special order from SVT from Fritts Ford here in Riverside... So thats not it plus there's not one aftermarket part on the car... Nor does it have any R symbols...

Obviously i don't... Thats why i asked... I didn't believe him after I resaerched it... He said something about it being like 1 of 6 '04 verts with this "R" upgrade... Thanks for clearing that up...

he's blowing smoke OR the dealer blew some smoke. no R package for 04..there was the 2000 Cobra R but you'd know if your uncle or whatever had that car.

Probably, thanks again... I know its not a 2000, it's an 04 Cobra vert, and his son has an 04 Mach 1...

It's probably him with the smoke, fritts ford is one of the top saleen/roushe(sp?) dealers...
