Ford Racing officially announces the 2012 Mustang Cobra Jet — Autoblog



"Last week it was leaked that Ford would be bringing its purpose-built drag racer, the Cobra Jet, back for another year in 2012. Today Ford made it official by revealing the car at the Performance Racing Industry (PRI) show in Florida alongside its road racing brother, the Boss 302S.

After getting an upgrade in 2010, the Cobra Jet is getting revised once again for 2012 with an updated version of the supercharged 5.4-liter V8 and modified suspension, low-drag racing brakes, new black anodized wheels and a stickier set of Goodyear racing slicks. Three colors will be offered – Race Red, Grabber Blue and Winner White – and just 50 will be available from the Ford Racing catalog. Pricing starts at $91,990 with a fully loaded Cobra Jet coming in at $103,980. Follow the jump for the press release."

Nice, but lose the cobra decal.

No sir, not on this car.

It can pull it off because it's the most badass mustang being produced, nothing can compete with it, so there is nothing to compare it too. Other companies offer a drag package but the CJ means bussiness.

How fast is it?

10s from the factory.

9s with a pulley swap.

$100,000 for a 10 second car.... Sounds like a steal

That will never go down in value, it will just go up.

If you never drive it and let it sit for 20 years...maybe... Adds even more incentive to an already great bargain

False.

50 are made. As long is they are not wrecked or cut up the value to will increase.

Cannot be driven on the street so average wear and tear will not be there, it goes down the track in one direction only. Maintain it yearly like any race car and it'll be alright.

Anyone who could afford such a toy isn't really worried about it anyways.
