    Roush 03 Cobra Saleen

    It's no B.S., it's no secret that Ford released the design of the '05 too soon and suffered the consequences in sales of the '04 models. Ford even admitted this. Did this cause the sales of the Cobra to dwindle as well? Who knows... just drawing my own theory based off of the loss in sales...

    Roush 03 Cobra Saleen

    2003 Cobra outsells 2004 I think the reason why is due to the fact that Ford released the design of the 2005 Mustang too early. The concept car came out so soon and was so largely appreciated that Ford suffered huge sales dips in 2004, as everybody waited to purchase 2005 Mustangs, esp...

    Gtech Pro RR...

    Yeah, I have one too. Snazzy little device! I ran a 14.90 1/4 @ 112.9 mph in my friend's '05 GT, but that was with more than a little wheel spin off the line, first, and second. Let me put it to you this way... my 0-60 was deep into the 6 second range! Ouch! Street... er... track temps were...

    Boss Shinoda

    The only true way is to check out www.TeamShinoda.com and look under owner's list. If you see a car on the list that resenmbles the vehicle/location that you saw you will know for sure. The other say to tell is to look at the fender stripes. Though it is optional equipment, most of the real...

    Actually, the car in question, if I am not mistaken, is a pending car and not a badged vehicle. To my knowledge their car lacks just the authorized wheels, chin splitter, and wing from being badged- but Jim Klok wll have to confirm that. On a personal note, NICE car!!! I love the '04 Comp...

    Boss Shinoda

    Sorry for getting a little late in the game here, Jim, I don't get a chance to check out Stangnet that much anymore. What you said is so true, apples and oranges. One thing that bothers me however is all of the talk about Shinoda "Riding the coat tails of the legend" that I have...

    Boss Shinoda

    Okay, allow me reiterate. The Level I cars are around 280 hp. They are mostly suspension and appearance. However the Cobra R platform comment is simply ubsurd. The 2000 SVT Cobra R it the most powerful R to date with a tap of 385 hp. That is simply nothing compared to the 600 plus...

    Boss Shinoda

    Actually, I am not trying to confuse the two cars. I am simply explaining the history of the Shinoda cars since there have been some speculations regarding the legitimacy of the Boss. I am not at all confused, nor have I tried to make any comparison between the two vehicles. The new Boss...

    Boss Shinoda

    First off, I would like to make a few points quite clear. I am not here to disrespect anybody elses car. Matter of fact, your car pictured is really hot. The designer of the original Bosses was the late Larry Shinoda (as I see you are aware of). What a lot of people do not know is that Mr...

    Boss Shinoda

    Cool deal, man! I remember you. As a matter of fact I mentioned to my fiancee Tiffany when we left Cooter's Place that your car was really sharp! All I have to say is True Blue GT vert, with tan interior and a blonde to boot? Lucky man! :nice:

    Anytime, Nailz. Glad to help!

    Boss Shinoda

    Yes indeed. It is because the wing is not a real Shinoda wing. The real Shinoda is a true 15" whereas the knockoff is quite smaller. Also, the quality is poor in this one. I have actually seen the Ageclassic one and it is much less quality. Plus if you ever want to get your car badged as a...

    Boss Shinoda

    Actually, it does have a Boss engine in it... along with a Paxton blower. The Cragar car is the last car that Larry Shinoda personally built so it is indeed a true Boss. All of the other guys that own 1997 and newer Shinodas have parts on them that were produced specifically from Team Shinoda...

    Boss Shinoda

    Just decided to start a thread for all of the Boss guys to get together and :bs: a little about the team, the families, whatever you want. I think that we still need to defend Team Shinoda on the "Screwed by Team Shinoda" thread, but this will give us the chance to enjoy our team instead of...
