Something slow
Saw this pic on SVTP...I don't remember ever seeing one with the cobra emblem below the GT350...anyone have ideas of where this image may have come from or if it's new?

Looks photoshopped to me. The shadows look much too crisp on the R logo.

Already discussed and it's obviously a photoshop.

The badge probably the one on the BJ car. It's just a red badged Cobra.






The fender badge just says "GT350"

EDIT: looks like the interior DOES have a "R" so maybe the exterior badges are not final? Guess we'll have to wait and see. I hope they add the red "R" to the end of the fender badge. It makes it stand out apart from the GT350. If you're paying that kind of $$$ for it, it should look very unique.

Like all of us, I would love to know the final numbers.
Yesterday from a reliable source, said the numbers have not been settled
as they have not decided on final calibration.
They are still testing daily, was told it will be impressive:)

I want that infotainment delete! In my Mach 1 I wanted to find the dual din delete piece they used in the 2000 Cobra R. Why have a radio when the engine makes the only music I want to hear.

Q: How much were you able to share with the 5.0L?
A: There are little common parts (i.e. things in the valve train), but it’s pretty much an all-new engine: new heads, new casting, new intake, new crank, new pistons, new rods, new halfshafts.
.
So in this quote Jamaal is talking about the new Voodoo engine.

Now maybe this is a stupid question, but there's nothing in the engine called a halfshaft, is there? Did Jamaal get confused and name part of the IRS/drivetrain that is upgraded to handle more power?

Sorry, that was a transcription error. Fixed it.

Jamal mentioned the halfshafts after discussing the engine (unrelated).

If Ford themselves specifically posted this picture, then I expect we will see the Cobra R badge return. This picture was indeed the first post that confirmed the GT350R for Detroit and, it was posted by FoMoCo if I remember correctly.



I think the red badges should indicate that you have a GT350TP... It's the Red Key GT350...



Or... to be even sweeter... The Red badge above should be OEM Body colored... It's the little things that make these things special.
