Spotted: OV Mall: Black Mustang Cobra R!?!?
 
Never saw one of these wings in real life, only on my sick street machine in GT3. Had an SVT badge on the trunk and said COBRA across the bumper. I only caught a glance at his backside as he was getting ready to turn a corner, so I dont know what the front of the car looked like. Oh and I think he had dark wheels, but I'm not sure on that one.
I assume that it wasnt a real Cobra R because i think they are ridiculously expensive and rare, but just seeing if anyone has ever seen this guy around and knows anything about him.
Here is some info on them with photos http://www.rsportscars.com/eng/cars/mustang_cobra.asp
If you see him around, put an invite on his windshield!!

According to that link you posted, the Cobra R said Mustang on the bumper, not Cobra. I don't think its a true Cobra R.

Yes, the cobra is avalible in black, but I have never heard of a Cobra R in any color except for red.

They only came in red. I think it is a kid that goes to bucks. I used to park next to a v6 mustang with a cobra r kit on it everyday there.

are you sure it wasn't a mustang cobra GT-R? :rolleyes:

MuddyREX 01-16-2005 08:27 PM

Or a Mustang Cobra Type-R?

criz 01-17-2005 08:42 AM

ha ha ha... yea, or a mustang type-r!

gotta love those guys who just tack on those badges... a shame that most of them dont know what a real GT-R is... ah, RICERS

If it's who I'm thinking it is...It's not a real Cobra R. He wrecked the front end of his GT and the Cobra R kit was actually cheaper than the stock GT body parts.

TROLL 02-14-2005 05:28 PM

yeah who knows... thats a big frickin wing though... wowza.

Cobra Rs are all red and extremely rare.

vwcorradokid 02-15-2005 08:34 AM

His name is John, and it's not a real Cobra R...it was wrecked and he got the Cobra R kit for less than the stock GT kit costs, so that's what he did. Still looks amazing though.

TROLL 02-15-2005 10:09 AM

yeah it definitely caught my attention, i only got a glimpse of it. hopefully he'll hear about our thursday meets and come out when the weather is nicer.

I can try to get a hold of him and see if he'll come.

vwcorradokid 02-15-2005 07:46 PM

OK...apparently there are 2 of them around. I was behind the Cobra R(eplica) and when I pulled next to the kid, he gave me this cocky look like it was a real Cobra R. It was entirely too quiet to be a real Cobra. It sounded like a stock GT...not even exhaust on it.

I've seen that car around. I don't think its a Cobra R though, but it definitely looks good.
