    Why no 6 speed love?

    It doesn't take alot of torque to run a 6 speed, hell the Nissan Spec-V runs a 6 speed and it has 180 lb/ft. I always got the feeling that the 6-speed was for cars with more horsepower/capable of reaching higher top speeds - the 6th gear being tall-ish for conserving gas mileage at low rpms and...

    How much for the 2006 Cobra

    Very true, I'm just quoting Car and Driver's quarter mile time but it may yet go down

    Heres another few reasons why the GTO will never be competition to the Cobra, while I am thinking of them. The GTO is pushrod, it weighs 200 pounds more than the Cobra (itll weight more with the LS6 conversion) and the Cobra does the 1/4 mile in 12.88 at 112, while the GTO does it in 14 @102.

    How much for the 2006 Cobra

    The only way the GTO will ever be competition for the Cobra is if they take that LS1 and convert it to an LS6, which Car and Driver seems to think will happen.

    How much for the 2006 Cobra

    I think a 5.0 is a definite possibility in the 07 Cobra, especially now since the GT-R has the Ford Racing 5.0 Cammer in it - and they raised the compression to 11. Like I said before, I think they need to try raising the compression in the 04 Cobra's engine before going 5.4, but a 5.0 would be...

    How much for the 2006 Cobra

    I really would honestly like the 07 cobra to stay a dohc 4.6. A a supercharged 5.4 3v is just too close to the GT. I think Ford could safely raise the compression ratio in the '04 Cobra engine and still keep it supercharged and save some weight. I mean that engine is tough its not unheard of...
