My other friend said the gt500 is the only mustang to have a 5.4................which is right.......... Simple Google search for Cobra 2004 5.4 took me to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Mustang_SVT_Cobra The answer there was NO. However there was a 5.4 Cobra -R ...300 of them in 2000!

AFBLUE Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 It may have been just an aftermarket "GT-R" badge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerS Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Well, she said it was a newer body convertible style and said GT R on the back. I don't know... Nope. No convertible made in the R.

I called and talked to her and pulled up the 2005 GT-R concept. She said it was similar but a different orange and no wing. She also said the "R" look like it was airbrushed. I'm thinking a type of clone probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerS Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 Real one's are hard to come by and rarely seen on the street. The 93's are either raced or stored. Bringing big dollars. Low, low mile cars are double the original sticker. $60,000 +. The 95's are mostly raced or wrecked from racing and rebuilt but many still race regularly. Most have led a hard life. 2000's are very popular race cars for open track events. The owners ride them hard and love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
