Default Website Feature on my single turbo C6 !

Had the chance to take some pretty cool pictures for a local website that covers a lot of the popular cars in Queens, NY. They did a nice write up on mine and my buddies 03 Cobra! Just thought you guys might find it cool and there's some neat photo's in there

A few pics:

That Cobra makes over 1,000hp I'm sure he'd be ahead of a few vettes lmao but I think it was just the way we were driving not planned lmao

Great looking cars. One question is that lip on you're car just a standard Z06 lip or is it some kind of custom lip ?

Cool pics. I like your Vette. With all due respect I don't see anything too special about the Cobra and with a Whipple making the boost that engine must be a very well spec'd piece. I assume theres substantial modification to the suspension as well if it is putting any of that power down. What's yours making? Specs?

Congrats on the article, but some of those pictures are so 'tweaked', they made my head hurt!

That was about as intelligent as an 8 year olds response. Mustang owner is 24 and makes over $100k a year im sure if he was into vette's he'd have one...Believe it or not some people just have a passion for some cars, they enjoy what they have and it's not all about what you can afford and how deep your pockets are. Besides to a zr1 owner your just a clown who couldnt afford anything more then a 07 base model C6, even funnier is the fact that his 8 year old Cobra is worth more then your 07 coupe that you paid a whopping 29k for, arent you the baller lol

As unintelligent as you may think that comment may be. It is what the vast majority of the population thinks. For the most part common folk (non car guys) don't even really know the difference between a ZR1 and base c6. I really don't think he was trying to be rude.

Personally i would never own a mustang. Although i do get what your saying. Im still a big fan of the supra and thats even older.Personal preference is all that matters.

Btw Im 27 and I sell printing for a living. I have been pulling down quite a bit more than 100k for the past few years. So i am neither too old or poor to have a proper opinion on the matter. Just my 2 cents.

Your Vette is beautiful btw

You seem way more interested in your "friends" Cobra that looks to have nothing more than a set of wheels and tires.
I've also yet to see a Whippled Cobra hit even 700rwhp and that was with 19#'s of boost.
That would be eaten alive by a 600+ hp Vette.
All of the pics are done for a mustang magazine of an unimpressive Cobra.
Cobra's are nice. They are not as nice as GT500's which still aren't on par with most modded Vettes.
100k a year around here isn't exactly baller status.
BTW where are you getting that an 8 year old Cobra is worth more than an 07 Vette?

Why did you not widebody the front? I really see nothing special about the Mustang. The new 5.0's look tons better. You have to find the right person to get any money out of a modded car. I really doubt the Mustang would bring much more than a stock Cobra if anything at all.

You haven't seen a mustang hit 700whp with a whipple lol if you read the article you'd see that this cobra makes 910/1160 on a mustang dyno lol so he's a tad higher the 700whp.. Just saying that other things beside a vette can be appreciated for what they are but I guess the point is getting missed here. You guys are right corvettes are the best mustangs are junk...I could only imagine what they say about us on Lamborghini forums lol
