A short excerpt of a test drive from Muscle Car magazine:
"Depress the clutch, apply the brakes, slip the gearbox into neutral and twist the key. It takes but a second for the Cobra plant under the hood to jump to life, quickly settling into a somewhat distant rumble that can be felt through every pedal at your feet. And this is where the familiar muscle car sense of performance vanishes. You see the Cobra analog gauges, witness the cage around you, feel the stick in your right hand and the bucket that hugs you, but taking off from first does not produce the neck-snapping thrust you would expect. It could very well have been the fact that we were traversing a long drive sporting speed bumps, but even with the short thrust of the right foot, acceleration is as smooth and as natural as a Buick LaCrosse. Time for a second attempt, at the intersection we smash the accelerator to the floor. There it is, but the high buckets prevent the familiar snap from materializing. It's a short throw into second, and with the foot still in it, we're into third while the needle sharply climbs the circular ladder. We're in fourth only briefly before being directed down a side road featuring a 90-degree downhill left. Earlier, the rental car required extreme braking to make this corner, but the suspension under the Cobra Vic holds an even keel, the two-inch bar up front taking the g-force as if it was nothing, even while braking and manipulating the gearbox down a step or two. In a flash, we're through the corner--no time to look at the meter, but we're certain we were a long way from zero. In an instant, the trans is in fourth. Our only regret was that we didn't hit a stretch of pavement that allowed enough room for us to hit fifth. Stopping power? Did we mention that we're looking into a set of these pads for our own cars?"
You can't build this car for the asking price and own a unique piece of Ford, Bondurant, and Roush history.
