  • To say I'm a fan of the Superformance Shelby Cobra is a massive understatement! This 30th Anniversary model is my new favorite from Superformance combining the CSX number in the Shelby Registry along with having the stronger more rigid Superformance chassis and that 600 HP Ford Godzilla engine so sit back and enjoy the ride...

There is no meaningful documentation on vehicle maintenance. If you're not an experienced mechanic or have access to a shop that knows Superformance products, you're out of luck.

    Love the Cobra and plan to build a “replica” here in my country! But like many new versions of it I’m not shooting for an exact copy, but a restomod with a modern Ford V8 engine and transmission, CF race seats and other parts, modern chassis, independent suspension and 18” wheels. Kind of the new AC Cobra launched last year. About the engine, after reading a few books and watch God knows how many videos, I found there’s a catch: although we all love the big 427 engine, race drivers of the day hated the upgrade from the 289, because it wrecked the handling of the car. Also, with such a short wheelbase, the immense torque of the 427 at low rpm is responsible for most of the spins and crashes with the Cobra when the driver gets too excited. So, it’s something to think about🧐. Can’t wait for the video! Thanks, Shawn!

      Mar, think about this, the last years of the true AC Ace's before Carroll Shelby contacted AC to drop a 289 and then a 427 into them to make them Cobra's, they had the AC Ace Ruddspeed with a Ford Zephyr derived 2.6L I6 with a rack of SU's or Webber's hanging off the side.... how about my idea, a Ford Barra 195 I6 with some headwork, higher compression, and a rack of ITB's making in excess of 300hp....300hp is literally nothing as they make close to that stock the 195's at 261hp and 288lb-ft, depending on the headwork and tune, you'd probably be easily able to surpass 400hp without real effort, and both having the closest to "original" as all the AC's of this "model" had I6's until Carrol, and the most unique as I know nobody nor have seen anyone ever show they've put the infamous Barra I6 in one.... literally win-win 👌

    Hey Sean you are by far my favorite auto reviewer! If I had the money I’d send you enough to buy your Cobra.

    Side thought, wonder what a Ruffian Cobra would look like 🤔

      I hear you man!! Chris is such a great builder, but an even greater guy and friend. I've talked to him a few times and he's always super kind. I can't even imagine what a Ruffian Cobra would look like. Amazing I'm sure!

    Man that's one beautiful shop and car. I love Superformance rendition of the Cobra with the modern aero work. If I hit the lotto, I want one in dark grey like the one behind it, with the same color stripes.
    Dude, it's 55F and you're complaining? It's 26F right now with a high of 40F mid day, which is pretty damn warm for us. Then it's going to drop to 20F over night, better than the 15-17F we've been getting all weeknight. As I get older, the cold is brutal on the knees and back, especially when it's windy with wind chill in the single digits or in the negative. 55F in mid February would be lovely for us New England folks.

    Thats it, thats me. THAT'S the Cobra that I want. If I have the money before I die, this will be one of the few extravagances I will afford myself. I've wanted a Cobra for some time, But, this is the car that I want, engine and all, right here. Done deal. Thank you for this video.

    Great Crate Motor, built for trucks so it's not high buck, like a 5.0, super modern heads, light weigh castings, torque curve like a pool table. What a great combo!

    The 30th anniversary of a car based on a 60 year old car. When a car that's awesome enough to have an anniversary edition has a separate yet identical car being made in its image and likeness and to its specifications for long enough to have it's own anniversary it had to start with a really really special car!

    Dream car! Great Video! My pockets are not deep enough to afford $225k and this car in the Northeast would not work because our roads are terrible. But....one can dream! The sheer cacophony of this beast makes you want to scream the pledge of allegiance while getting a tattoo of the US flag at the same time! 🏁👍 Thank you!

    When I was in Junior High alot of the Movie Gumball Rally was filmed in and around Prescott AZ. We would go have out where the cars were and talk to the stunt drivers. I have loved the Shelby Cobra and the Ferrari 365 Daytona ever since.
