Default diff between mustang SVT and Cobra?

I ask because I murdered an SVT tonight...I saw big SVT letters but didn't see the Cobra symbol. It was definately a late model, rims, lowered and nice sounding exhaust.

He came up on me quickly and paced me in the lane next to me...but wouldn't look over. So i zoomed off. Then I see him catching up quickly, and I find an open spot for him to line up next to me...he doesn't, and instead wants to do one of those lame fast drive-bys. I didn't let him cuz when he got next to me I punched it and left him way behind...we did this a couple of times and he couldn't keep up at all.

So did I race a supercharged Stang or a measly 325 HP stang?

Let me be the first to say "In Before the lock".
We all know street racing is a big no-no. You are the first person on this forum to do it. It was probably a 6-banger with the SVT badges.

It would seem that your car zooms better than his.

WTF????? If you raced a supercharged SVT Cobra.... You'd know it..

Not sure there is a "measly 325 HP stang" out there.
