'06 Cobra Questions
Will the bugs be worked out of the engine by the time they release to the public? (i assume since they are currently racing it)
What kind of gas mileage will this get? Is it practical to buy this car to use as an every day kinda car? Is there special maintenance required for this engine?

Re: '06 Cobra Questions
Cobra What? The next Cobra will be the 2007 Shelby GT-500. As far as I know there is only a prototype built as of right now, and they are working on what they need for production.
The motor shares enough already in use components that it should have few if any new bugs to work out...

I meant the 2007 Shelby GT-500, yes. What is the difference between the new Shelby GT-500 and the previous Cobra's? Should it be used as a weekend car, rather than a commute every day kind of car?

Re: '06 Cobra Questions
i think your question depends on the driver. would you only drive the 03 cobra on weekends and for special occasions or would you drive it on the regular?

#1 they arent currently racing it, they are racing a mustang with a ohc 5.0, and there wont be any bugs to work out most likely, theyve been using the engine for years. its a 5.4 liter with a supercharger. the same engine as a ford gt with a slightly different setup so it doesnt produce quite as much hp. but it wouldnt be hard to get it there... and over. #2 special maintenace, no.
