Attention Mustang faithfuls, pick up the latest issues of 5.0 Mustang & Superfords to see the shootout between the Shelby GT500, and the 04 SVT Cobra!!!!

saw it! i dont know why people seem to think the GT500 is slow.

Tell me someting LXARLO, Motor Trend clocked the SVT Cobra doing 0 - 60 in 4.5 seconds. Other magazines have reported 4.7. In contrast, i've read two magazines stating that the Shelby did it in 4.5 to 4.6 seconds. Of course a cooler day will yield the best performace for both vehicles.

Would you agree that from zero to sixty the Cobra is right up there with the Shelby? I know the Shelby will win the quarter mile.

I have not seen the comparison between the Terminator and Condor. But I seen in one magazine where the best they could manage was 13.26 at 114.5 1/4. Now I am not exactly a pro at drag racing but, I am almost certain I could pull off a better time than that in the Shelby. Not to mention this is after they installed a new tune and later a custom tune. The magazine was Modified Mustang.

Can that be right? The SVT Cobra posted a 12 sec quarter mile at 111 MPH. See what I mean?

yea i do agree, but its like saying that an evo or sti in general is quicker out of the hole, but the terminator can catch up to it later. both cars are fast and none of them would really be considered slow. (awd advantage vs. weight advantage) after 60 the shelby freight trains the terminator.
