Yesterday morning I saw a Mustang that I had not been aware even existed. It was the newest body style, red, and said "427" and "Cobra" on it. Could only see it for a minute before they turned. Anyone have a linky to this car? Is it just a kit or an SVT? Thanks!
did it look like this? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180327589948&viewitem=#ht_4788wt_1199
Hummm. I know it said the word "Cobra" on it. The Shelby one has over 600 HP but I have no idea what size the engine is and the Ebay listing doesn't say. The Roush doesn't indicate Cobra at all.
i think its just the same engine as in a normal gt500, a 5.4, but with a bigger blower 427 is just the package deal isn't it? like certain decals and trim, but nothing having to do with the engine, i THINK lol
The 427 Is a package deal by Shelby (over priced) I got an email from Shelby and if you get the kit you get tickets to a couple races and there is only like 500 of these cars beign made. Its the same motor just with a blower uprgrade, a few badges, brakes, and rims. IIRC
Actually it has a 3 valve 4.6 and the 427 the first year it was made indicated the amount of hp, its now up to 435 hp and 400 torque. I saw one at a local dealer when I bought my SUV. They only wanted around $35K for it and it was a convertible. Right next to it was a GT500KR. Basically Roush decided to keep the 427 number as a model designation as they attempt to replicate the Porsche 911(not the car itself but its widely known name) but with a Mustang. Here's a picture of the 427 and the GT500KR I took with my phone. 427 GT500KR
sick cars i was talking about the Shelby 427 though, not the Roush, the one i put up in the ebay link and the one 04YELLOWGT is talking about.
I was at that race last weekend. It was a blast and i think i saw the same car that was in that auction, with some decals on it though...
