2012's DO come with the glass roof.
It's not a Cobra.
Maybe I should start calling mine a Mach 1.
Don't look like a douche by calling it a Cobra.
I guess the 4 Cobra emblems on the outside and the at least 3 Cobra Emblems on the inside doesn't mean a thing! That's good to know.

Technically speaking, it is not a Cobra.
In 68', they were called Shelby Cobra GT500. The new model is and isn't a Cobra. It is a Shelby GT500, WITH Cobra emblems.

If that's enough for you to consider it a Cobra, then by all means.
I'd still think you were a douche who doesn't know his own car if you told me about your '08 Cobra.
I guess my I could call mine a Ferrari since it too has a horse for an emblem.
You may as well say it's an SVT vehicle too.
It's a Shelby GT500, not a Cobra.
Actually I know my car very well it has 7 COBRA emblems on it! It has 2 GT500 Emblems 7 SVT Logos and it did "Say" SHELBY 3 times. So calling it a COBRA would be More Accurate!
Hey MDick........... maybe not the best path to argue with a founding member and moderator............. nor reporting a post to the staff where said moderator, who's your target, is going to be one of the ones your "report" goes to........ 
HEMI LOL
The Feast and The Famine
I would debage a gt500 anyway. Carroll Shelby is a doucher anyway.
Ford does not use the term cobra with the gt500. It's a gt500. I was always kinda puzzled by the cobras on it anyway. I understand the reference to the original car, but it's still odd to me

It's still not a Cobra. It's a Shelby GT500.

Hahahaha!
First time I've been reported!
For what it's worth Mobey, I didn't call you names. I used a hypothetical situation about someone telling mr about a 2008 Cobra. Even still I said I'd consider you a douche, so I didn't even imply that'd I'd call you a douche in said hypothetical scenario.

BTW mine's a GT500, at least that's what it says on the side.
I dont care what Nick says.... mine's a COBRA!!!!!

I don't care if he is Jesus Christ. He is wrong. If I or anyone else chooses to call my/their car, that came from the Factory with 7 COBRA Emblems on it, a COBRA that’s my/their right to do so. The cars have a direct lineage. He can be childish about it and call people names all he wants but it doesn't change the fact that he is WRONG!
I didn’t know he was a moderator and don’t care! Clearly the Moderating credentials on this site need revision if the Moderators are allowed to name call!
Like I said I normally call it a GT500 when talking about it! I would have rather Ford Built the car/s without any SHELBY, COBRA, SVT, or GT500 Logs/Badges on them!

It would appear so, looks like you even changed your signature! Mwahahahahahaha!
Listen Dick, can I call you Dick?
I'm not wrong, you are.
It's really not a big deal. I'm trying to help you out and save you some face when you try showing off your new "Cobra" to someone who knows their shit.
No matter how you slice or dice it, the car is a Ford Shelby GT500. Nothing more, nothing less.
Now you're calling me childish, when it's you who refuses to agree with common knowledge. I'm understanding that you are not willing to let logic get in the way of your arguement, so there's no point in continuing this any further.
Recheck my posts, I never called you a name. I've already explained that.
I'd call you an asshole now, but I just read your disclaimer. Hahahahaha!
No hard feelings Dick. I honestly could care less if you called it a Firebird. It's your car, and your reputation on the line.

clearly you have a thin skin and you like the color pink.......... or should make this call?
hey Nick
I've owned my car for over 4 years and I KNOW my “Shit” I know more about it then you ever will. I bought it new!
You are Wrong and Childish and you have made hard feeling and made this site look bad! I will not be back! With Moderators like you and stkjock I can see why all the complaint threads on other sites!
BTW: That’s how I heard of this site was Complaint Threads! I wanted to see for my self. It’s clear there is a reason for those complaints! All you “Moderators” have fun with yourselves!
