Saw a Shelby Cobra today (crappy pics)

So I went to houston today and took my camera. Well on the way home a Shelby cobra flew by and I took 2 really quick pics. 20 mins later I saw another that was all black but no time to whip out the camera. It was the first one I have ever seen, it looked soo good. The side exit exhaust, the lip thing on the trunk, and that hood!!!!

Those are nice but I would rather have many other cars myself.

Not trying to highjack your thread. But, thought I'd share a couple pics I took at the Cleveland Auto Show earlier this year.

This one was different. It had side exit exhaust with cool sideskirts and billet grill. I think I saw a video of one that looks just like it on streefire.

I saw one this morning being driven with dealer plates, red with white stripes. Looked good but I expected it to sound meaner.

I have seen a whole caravan (on a transport trailer) of them last time I had to drive to Cleveland for work.

I see lots of them here in Clarkston. Many of the Ford upper management lives around here. I have also seen a convertable GT500, just a few days ago.

That one in your pic looks like a Roush or Saleen? Or it has a body kit on it? It looks like Eleanor though, not to bad.
