....Not [Mad]

I'm drivin' down Dublin Blvd, I see a white/blue stipes '05 in a parking lot. I clearly saw "GT500" on the side stripe so I turn around to check it out because I can't believe my eyes [Eek!] . I pull into the lot, cautiously walk over to it to check it out(amazed that I'm next to an '07). Well, as I look at it I start noticing things that aren't quite right...such as no boost guage, no COBRA emblems inside, only on the outside, little things that being a Cobra owner myself would notice(or other Cobra owners [Wink] )...Anyways, the car was still absolutely beautiful, very detailed to look like an 07 Cobra [patriot] .......FN FRAUD!!! This guy's gonna get smacked around by vettes and other cars and then they're gonna think they beat a 07 Shelby Cobra...True story, nice car, but it pissed me off [Razz] [Wink]

Dude, same kinda thing just happened to me! I saw this thread that said '07 Cobra in Dublin' and got all excited that it was in a town close to me, then I clicked on the link, only to find that the guy didn't see one. [Frown] I was sad. [Razz]

I would love to race this guy so that I can brag that I beat an 07 Cobra. It would make me feel good too.

hey there is nothing wrong with making a replica cobra (what i'm doing), on 2 conditions. 1.) You make it almost impossible for people to tell it's fake, and 2.) You make it faster than what you are trying to imitate! my .02cents

It's all good, bro. Not hatin' at all, you know that. I'm only bitchin' in jest [Razz] . To each his own IMO...I was just excited that I was seein' an '07 and it wasn't...it was kinda anti-climactic. Oh well, the 07's will be out soon enough. BTW, your car is cool [patriot]
