Nice Cobra !
 
Very nice! Is that a kit car?
 
Are you comparing your kit car?
 
It's a Factory Five. Just as much fun and not near as expensive!!! 675 hp will make the hair stand up on your neck.

Sorry, that was aimed at the troll, Mr. Warmwater. Apparently, he has deep regrets about selling his GT, because he just can't seem to stay away from here.

Gorgeous car. Thanks for posting!
 
Holy cow. 675hp with that light of a car - it must be insane!
 
Was a little offended coming from you..but now I get it!!! Color is copperhead orange... Kinda fitting!! Here is a pic from the world of wheels.

That's what engine dyno'd at break in. Only time car was put on it made 560whp. Guy I bought it from best time was 6.99 seconds 105 mph in the 1/8 mile. He said he missed third too!!! Yea it's scary fast. I haven't taken it to the track.

I went for a drive in the GT afterwards and oh so more refined controllable power.

It's nice to have a choice between refined controllable and raw elemental. :thumbsup
 
Love the color. 17" wheels?
 
Gorgeous car. Any shots of the engine?
 
Yes, let's see the engine!

Beautiful car!
 
Thanks. Cool story behind the car. It was built with all new parts no donor car by a local high school auto shop class. The teacher teaches them such attention to detail. They win state every year. The engine was donated by a local engine builder!!!

They documented it on youtube a couple years ago.

He is a real car nut and teaches the kids pride in work by building a car every couple of years. Says boys and girls who never had any real interest in school become infatuated with the project.
