Spotted a 2000 Cobra R today on my way home. Followed through one town and when we hit the highway we had some fun. Can't say much more than that on the forums. Let's just say speeds were not so legal.

Only had my camera phone, and my g/f took the best shots we could really get with it.






The driver was a little asian kid, look no older than about 17 and could barely see over the wheel.

(This one's Real)




You can't rule the little asian kids ride out as fake just because of rear exhaust. He could have put a regualr Cobra rear on for dual exhaust. But more than likly, it's fake just becuase the colors a dead give away.. unless he painted a real Cobra R that color (idiot).

Yup.

It had me thinking alot when I saw it. The chrome wheels I knew were not factory, but I forgot about the side exhaust. Oh well.

Also, the color of the car was correct. My camera phone throws off colors big time.

I should of known when he pulled away from me on the highway it wasn't a Cobra R. Let's just say it should of been alot farther down the highway than he was. I figured he was taking it easy on me.

Also has the wrong brakes, wrong hood, and it appears to be a stick axle on the rear by the way the exhaust runs.

sorry
I kept forgetting to post about it all week.
It was at the Budweiser plant in Merrimack, NH.
Besides, I thought you were in Chicago.
Or was that just last weekend?

One of the Ferarri guys had his sneakers displayed with the car. We thought of you.
