If your calling the cobra the terminator then you are correct. I had an 04 cobra and all I can say is wicked.

Yeah the 03-04 Cobras were nicknamed "Terminators."

Wow, I had one and did not know that. I guess you learn something everyday.

Yeah it's just something to differentiate the 03-04 Cobras to the current Cobras (GT500s). Kind of gets confusing, to me at least, when someone just mentions Cobras and nothing else lol.

Where I'm from , we say " svt cobra" and "gt500". But the year usually comes up anyhow so that keeps thing straight.

GT500's are not "Cobra's" despite all the people who like to refer to them as such. I think that's because the Cobra was the top-tier factory Mustang for so many years and, since the GT500 now sits at the top, it was natural for people to put that label on them.

I know you have one and I'm not trying to argue, but I just looked at the window sticker on my Gt500 and It says Cobra. Also It has Cobra badges on the grill and the fenders. So What do you mean?

Yeah, my neighbor has one. It has cobra badges on it.

So did the original GT500's in the 1960's, but they were not called "Cobras". The coiled snake is simply a nod to Shelby Automobiles who created the GT350 and GT500 following their success racing Shelby Cobras in the early '60's against Ferrari.

Here's the window sticker from both my 2007 and my 2010 GT500's and I don't see Cobra anywhere on them.

That's funky, mine says cobra badging under exterior. I'll take some pic's and post.
I know what your trying to say though. It doesn't say cobra anywhere on the car other than it having the cobra emblems.

Exactly. As I said, the Cobra-badges are simply a nod to the GT500's heritage.
