  • thats awesome...its almost as fast as a z06

  • "insert old, stupid, unoriginal, lame, gay, faggoty, annoying joke bitching about video quality here"

  • 240p we meet again!

  • sweet!!

  • If u think thats loud you should check out Bill Shepherds 289 it is sick!!!!!

  • ah 240p . . . we meet again

  • Thumbs up if you all got the chills and goose bumps when he got into it.

  • fantastic sound

  • Man , this guy can"t shift at all .

    Lifts off of it when he shifts ....Cheese !

  • YOUR DRIVING ON THE RONG SIDE OF THE ROAD OMG :D

  • Recorded with a rock.

  • Where is this, Germany?

  • The beast, no substitute. No one will ever build a car that had such an impact on the automobile world.

  • filmed using a toaster

  • BRUTAL!!!! HOLY FUCKING SHIT, THAT THING IS GONNA STICK ITS TAIL PIPE UP MY ASS

  • This is my favorite car, so no bitching about what I'm about to say. These stupid arguments about what's the loudest car are about to end. It's the McLaren F1 people. It literally has jacks to plug in communications headphones because that's the only way to talk. Why? Because there's pretty much nothing between you and the worlds most powerful naturally aspirated engine. THAT, is loud.

  • The best sounding Ford V8 was in the original GT 40 race car. The Shelby Cobra, since it exhaust pipes were on the sides, sounded louder. But they weren't race tuned, you lose some hp. LOve both cars, no doubt.

  • @fricky101 550HP is plenty :).

  • If I didn't have a choice to be in one of those cares to go someohere in, EARPLUGS! Most certainly. I have very sensative hearing.

  • I have drove in a supersnake before

    

  • god that idle is so wicked!!

  • @rex3453 Yeah great comeback, really put me in my place with that one.

    You thick piece of shit!

  • @starrs2001 Thank you! I appreciate it your comment about my mindless-insult.

  • SWEET sound! Just right!

    One note though: above 5252 rpm (technically, it's "above 16,500/pi" rpm), the horsepower number is *always* larger than the (lbs-ft) torque number; below that rpm, the horsepower number is *always* smaller than the (lbs-ft) torque number -- and at that rpm, the horsepower and (lbs-ft) torque numbers are *exactly* equal. Always. Without exception.

    Just FYI, in case anyone ever tries to BS you.

    LOVE the video, though!

  • my bloody teeth have just fell out.

  • That noise is pure porn>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.

  • Better have some good brakes ;)

  • the TRUE fastest muscle car in the world

  • SWEET! It's great to see US muscle cars raping the Queen's Highway in the UK. Sadly I only had a 5 litre 3rd gen Trans Am (engine blew, couldn't afford another real car.......so far!), but I lived a little part of the American Dream :)

  • you are going the wrong lane dude

  • @bigbob6556 trust me, this car is loud, a six cylimder that is only 2 feet away from you, exhaust is beside the door, and no mufflers. My neighbour has an original 1967 cobra with the original 427s/c in it. Is is LOUD!!

  • nhra top fuel is louder 3.5 on the richter scale to be exact.

  • this vid is wrong the original had 485bhp max only the new shelby 427 cobras have 550bhp

  • Nope sorry this is nothing. My uncle bought one of 100 05 mustangs made by saleen, has over 800hp and the thing is so load that you have to scream in the car to talk to eachother. And it shakes so much that you can barely walk when you get out of the car lol.

  • why do people always film stuff with the most shit camera they can find? 240p? really?

  • @1grinder1 1. this was shot over 3 years ago so HD was still not very common. 2. when I went for a drive in this car i did not expect to be filming the journey so had to make the best out of what I had. and 3. when i posted this didn't wanna have to answer some smart ass question about the quality of the video in case you hadn't realised the movie was about the cobra not the quality and also 188,152 other people dont mind the quality so stop moaning

  • @fireblade1590 Hey, get a better camera.

  • @rex3453

    WHY? Do you not have any sound on your computer.

    What do you think you're watching 'Top Gear'?

  • @starrs2001 No, I think I'm watching a shitty video of a GT500 whilst being recorded with a shitty camera, but hey I thought that was self explanatory...apparently not.

  • @rex3453

    The only thing that's self-explanatory is that you're a knob... Now piss off!

  • @fireblade1590 I hate the quality of the vid, it looks like a 1940's TV show!!

  • @hammer555551 go hop in your fucking civic tool !!!

  • @080969msryan I don't have a Civic, but I do have a Honda CRV, which is a great little car. I also have a 2010 GMC Sierra Z71, with factory black metallic paint, that was used for a television commercial at my dealer's. It has less than 5,000 miles on it. I also have a 800 XT Can-Am ATV, and a Ski-Doo 1000 SDI Mach Z. So, as you can see, I have a lot of high-performance, sharp-looking stuff. Too bad you made an ass out of yourself. I would buy a ZR1 Vette, if I had a gorgeous broad.

  • @hammer555551 got vids of these things?would love to see them i had a canam. sold to a friend of mine. buying soon a razer ( sp?) 4 seater. get better use out of it.

  • @080969msryan bro civics arnt half bad, at 300 hp they can beat alot of full sized cars with 500 hp

  • @xyzdorky66 still 4 cils.... 

  • @metallicgirlable hey power is power, weight is weight,

    civics weigh 2200lbs

    trans am weighs 3400 lbs,

    guess who's gonna win at 300 hp?

    besides honda makes a really powerful motor thats naturally aspirated,

    i own a trans am but i plan on buying either a toyota celica gt.s or a 93 civic eg hatch

  • @xyzdorky66 ive got a ae86... xD

  • @metallicgirlable im pretty jealous actually haha

  • @metallicgirlable what is that? one of those RWD corollas?

  • @1grinder1 He must be broke after buying that shelby cobra.

  • @1grinder1 Quit your whining!

  • @1grinder1

    240p per square mile !

  • Looks like a Superperformance or even a Factory Five. The serial number of the original is on the right shock mount and starts with CSX...

  • I noticed that you were off the gas when you started your acceleration. That 66 cobra could jolt 0-60 probably between 3.4-3.7 secs. if tail end can be pinned down though 4.0 is bad enough.

  • @joshua626 that is true i just watched it again now and realised!

  • how much is a 427 now?

  • @th3Bl00dfu3l3d an original 427 shelby can go for 750k to a million dollars. But when AC cobra went bust the original owner of this car bought them out and had 4 original shells and decided to build them to the original conditions. This car sold in late 09 for 195k pounds (360k dollars) and was then sold again in germany for a reported 225k (400k dollars). In all honesty u cant put a price on these cars there values are changing daily.

  • the guy who bought this car makes burgers

  • It's a rep. True 427's are like the remaining Enzo's. Unbelievable, short production run cars. The problem is that a lot easier to spoof the Cobra then the Enzo, It's great that these people can make great cars. But they're just not the originals. What would Carroll and Enzo say.....

  • @frank2398 Well i think carroll would like the old owner of this car seeing as he bought out AC's when they went bust.

  • @frank2398 @p4k4er what he says is true.. the person driving this car while i was recording is the old owner he is talking about.

  • @fireblade1590 get in the Super Snake and see if you think this car is fast xD

  • @KeepItBRUTAL1 The Super Snake is only slightly faster, and is for wimps who want to be coddled and protected from the elements! THIS is the true Baddest Shelby Ever. HOT ROD magazine: Snake is 7/10th-sec faster on the 1/4 mile, the Cobra is a second faster around a 1.86mi road course. And the Cobra is 50 years old! You can choose which ever you want, but I'll take the car that separates the men from the boys, and doesn't just make you look like Shumacher if you've got a big enough wallet!

  • @frank2398 yea you know it,,,about the first 1000 of a 2500 production run on the 1966-67 427 cobra's got wrapped around a telephone pole.WAY TOO MUCH POWER!!! and to think carrol shelby's sole purpose to build the cobra 427 was to "blow the glass out of ANY corvette EVER MADE,,it blew every car on this planet in to the weeds!! EAT THIS FERARRI!!!! a diehard ford man said so!!!!

  • @frank2398 Carroll would probably be happy that the car is so iconic that many people are happy trying to replicate it exactly rather than doing extensive modifications on the design. Enzo I'm not sure. Either way those cars are far too exclusive and cost way too much anyway. Being able to replicate for a fraction of the cost I think is a great thing. Giving access to many more people rather than a select few with really fat wallets who like to show off :)

  • @papapetad well this car not alot of people can afford.

  • @P4k4er I'm in a very good position to know that thanks... But it's still a much more achievable goal to come up with 30 grand, as opposed to a million +... So going back to what I said just for the sake of repeating myself coz I love doing that, replicas make these cars accessible to a MANY MORE people than the originals do... Genius

  • @frank2398 this is an original

  • @frank2398 Shelby is still alive, ask him!

  • @frank2398 Carroll would say good on you. Since the original cobras were pretty much kit cars they're not that different than the real ones.

  • @frank2398 Well, Enzo is dead and Ol' Shelby would say "I wish I made more of them"

  • @frank2398 Carrol puts his name on the reproduction ones. If you get one built by an officially licensed shelby builder, it's registered as an authentic shelby with the man's signature.

    I can only assume that he selected the best builders and materials and are building them to his satisfaction to earn those accolades.

  • im from america and when i saw the cars coming at you on the right side i jumped in my seat a little expecting you to crash haha. nice car!

  • beautiful music! Great video ;)

  • I love the music of that Nascar v8, just fantastic.

  • my mate Lunny and Denyer have the same car but faster.

  • no offence, but this is crummy-made video, but atleast you let people get what your saying, but 4 secongs at 60mph!! That's fast, and a good choice in cars... is this a replica or an actual Cobra?

  • @frankisfunny2007 the movie was made with a sony ericsson k800i so hardly a HD video recorder. I went out in this car not anticipating filming the journey so thats the reason behind the awful video quality but at the end of the day its about the car. the answer to that is yes and no... the car was made much more recently using nothing but original parts from the "66 cobra so it is an actual cobra but not made in that year.

  • @fireblade1590 oh, so the car has somewhat eplicated parts, and original parts, still a great car, and a car to choose as a cruise car... well you can still see and hear the car

  • Cant beat the Refined European Look, with the American Muscle to back it up...

  • That sound is what dreams are made of.

  • I felt my chair going back

  • mine is louder!!

  • Fact: Europeans know good engineering when they see it.

  • listen to her scream! thats a fine machine, thanks for posting.

  • who needs a radio..you have a big block:)

  • Great video. Love the Car.

    Its too bad that there are so many willing to get into retarded debates over things they know nothing about.

  • Grocery getter!

  • JEEZE!!!

  • whats the serial number

  • @ZONDA432 not sure the cars been sold but can find out if ur that interested

  • @fireblade1590 im just curious

  • @ZONDA432,, serial number,,?? oh,ok,,,CSX2427!!!

  • @EXTIQUE Ha Ha funny, CSX2427 is a 1964 289 cobra.....

  • Is this film made in eruope?

  • @malcolmisenhower in england

  • @fireblade1590

    so it wasnt Europe...it was England?

  • @grazyarnie .......England is part of Europe...... *facepalm*

  • @EEwhit3y

    explain "facepalm" please,

    if You look it geographical...its like Scandinavia...no direct part of the conus of europe, if You look at the political attitute of the UK You see they isolate themselfs...if You look at the numbers how the people of the UK look at Europe...its again a very isolated role. As long as the old song "rule Britannia" isnt heard in the world..Albion wants to stay in the past and isolated...only partner USA, Canda and Australia, New Zealand...period

  • @EEwhit3y

    ahh...I figured out the "facepalm" thing...as I said...the UK where England is part of...is acting very isolated...the problem are not the people, I like the people I meet in the UK, and I am always amazed by the hospitality and warmth I experience there everytime. I am german and I am very aware of the historical burden I have to bear, cause of some twelve years of idiotic insane propaganda loaded politics, but I wont stay behind the fence with my opinion

  • @grazyarnie fuck historical burdens it wasn't you personally was it.! nice vid mate awesome car, is it yours?? ps thanks for the stats on description

  • @grazyarnie ohhhh i thought you were just some ignorant person haha. sorry bout the mix up :P

  • @EEwhit3y

    no need to be sorry, I sometimes realy am ignorant ;o)

    cheers for Your comment

  • @grazyarnie England is another continent or something? :D

  • dream car 

  • to bad an all complete stock 427 s/c cobra tops out at 164mph....427 tunell port motors sucked... rather have a 400m pumped up

  • @rollinbowtie1 Too bad you don't even know that if you just simply change the gears in the rear end, the 427 cobra will do about 185 mph.

  • Sounds good for a Ford engine. Frank Bullitt would appreciate. Loudest engine ever?? Try a Top Fuel nitro engine... deafening. Not to mention gas turbine engines.

  • @powerbandman I don't think he was speaking on literal terms.

  • damn son

  • What if you swapped the gearbox for a TVR variant...

    You might get more out of that 550+hp...

  • This car is a MONSTER!!!!!! WOW!!!!!!!!

    I'm an italian guy and I love american's muscle cars!! In Italy we can only dream to see one of these wonderfull creature!!!!

  • No other V8 quite sounds like a pushrod 427. Beautiful

  • ZR1 Corvette. Anyone,Anyone? 

  • @22reTOYOTA Ooops, Sorry. Did not mean to offened all you goverment motors UAW workers, Or the men that need a Corvette in order to get laid.

  • @22reTOYOTA

    You're joking son. No one drove a Corvette in the Le Mans. AC Cobra ruled. You're probably not old enough to know why they wrote a song about it.

    This was four hundred and twenty seven cubic inches of stoked fire with a small piece of sheet metal body . It flew

    And there was good reason why they wrote it...

  • @RadioReporter01 Is calling me "son" supposed to be an insult? Im 41, What, are you pushing 18? Get a life tough guy.

  • @22reTOYOTA

    Add that 18 to your 41 and you'd be real close.

    That means I was around in 1966 and going to the drag races on the Brooklyn Queens Expressway Connecting Highway watching some of the meanest cars in NYC battle it out for bragging rights and maybe big cash.

    And you were not yet born in 1966, SON!

    Anybody remember the Connecting? Just before the Triboro bridge, a quarter mile between bridges with a sharp turn at the end, just like dead man's curve in the song

  • @RadioReporter01 So do you want a medal?

  • @22reTOYOTA

    You keep it. You have issues, maybe it will make you feel better...

  • @RadioReporter01 Because I asked if anyone with a ZR1 could take this Cobra? Its a meaningless comment. Its ment for "light" conversation. Or do you just like to focus your anger on YouTube because its easy,and you wont get hurt. Give me a break.

  • @RadioReporter01 You know, I kinda have to side with the other guy. I'm only 18 but I don't even disrespect people like you do. If you're so proud of being born in '66 then why don't you act your age?

  • @thing503

    I was 13 in 1966

    You know, I kinda have to say you're a clown....

  • @RadioReporter01 That's great but people aren't going to give you respect just because you're an old timer and you think you deserve it.

  • @thing503

    I don't remember saying that.

    However I am old and get respect because I earn it.

  • @RadioReporter01 Well you definitely haven't earned any of mine.

  • @thing503

    So?

  • @RadioReporter01 Iunno, you tell me buddy. I'm gonna do the right thing and just stop now while we're both behind so we can both stop making ourselves look like asses.

  • satanic what a mans car

  • Damn that's awesome! That is a great sound and it must feel amazing hitting the power band.

  • Someone said American History. AC COBRA is British, built in Thames Ditton in England. Only the engine is american !!

  • Lousy picture

  • He's on the wrong side of the road! If I had that car I would drive it on both sides of the road

  • 427 side oiler will rape anything 

  • I would blow my hot load all over that car:)

  • I see too many people contradicting each other by calling them idiots.

    There are no idiots here just people either not car savvy or uninformed by what they are told by others. Do you know everything about this kind of car?

    If you do not own one you do not know everything.

  • So, um, I need to change my pants now. In other words, cool, awesome, beautiful, great, etc., etc. car.

  • Wonderful... What a sound... proper proper car.. You're very luck to have experienced it.. What did it sell For?

    Thanks for posting

  • Wonderful... What a sound... proper proper car.. You're very luck to have experienced it.. What did it sell For?

    Thanks for posting

  • Burnsiebhp is a guru of automotive knowledge....all hail Burnsiebhp

  • @Pennshitz Burnsiebhp-U.K.'s poster child for EuroTrash.

  • Yes Burnseibhp went and posted an insulting comment about the good old USA.....real mature and very intellegent.What an asshole. And ofcourse he tried to hide the comment now.

  • @Pennshitz - I have not hidden anything, perhaps you just can't use your PC correctly? As for being mature or intelligent in the context of insulting the USA? My comments have no bearing on either, but seeing as you feel it does merely points to your own glaring inadequacies (as in intelligence and maturity).

  • @Burnsiebhp Blow me liar

  • @Pennshitz If you had a penis that could be seen with the naked eye it could happen, in your dreams. However seeing as your mothers clit is larger than your dick, you have yet another problem.

  • @Burnsiebhp Pip pip,jolly good,bloody hell and all that rot.

  • @Pennshitz I can only presume that by typing pip, pip, jolly good, bloody hell and all that rot you think I may find it insulting? Well, I do not. What's more is that you assume I am indeed English/British. Another assumption...another incorrect assumption, by an assuming yank.

  • @Burnsiebhp is it time for tea and crumpets yet ?

  • @Pennshitz - If it was breakfast and I was English/British that may well be on the menu, but seeing as it is actually 22.03 and I am not English / British, no.

    Any more thick assumptions?

  • @Burnsiebhp Well then my good man where are you from ?

  • @Pennshitz I am not 'your good man' and if you could comprehend that I am not English/British you wouldn't post such rubbish. I'll give you a clue, I work in Maranello...

  • @Burnsiebhp HAHAHA well now ole chap.....why are you afraid to say where it is you are from ? Ashamed are ye ?

  • @Pennshitz I was trying to see if you could work it out, which, due to your own lack of brain power, you have failed to do. You are still knocking on with this silly olde world English stuff - why? Do you not understand the words I have typed? Are you that stupid?

  • @Burnsiebhp Hahahaha-well then bugger off if you are too much a coward to say it

  • @Pennshitz Dude, you are sooooo dumb it makes me laugh till it hurts. Classic.

  • @Burnsiebhp I got something thick for you faggot.

  • @Pennshitz I know you have; the head on your shoulders.

    As for Faggot? LOL - you don't even know the origin of the word, do you?!

  • @Burnsiebhp Yes I do.... IT MEANS CIGARETTES TO QUEERS LIKE YOU

  • @Pennshitz LOL - wrong. You are a total fuckwit.The USA's average IQ would jump if you were to go jump off a cliff.

  • @Burnsiebhp LOL- well it's been bloody good fun chatting with such a mega genieASS such as yourself kind sir. But I really must be off soon. CHEERIO

  • @Pennshitz It has been equally fun laughing at your stupidity.

  • @Burnsiebhp BTW you said you had nothing to hide when I mentioned you hid a post....and yet you are hiding where you're from..........LIAR

  • @Pennshitz - I have not hidden anything, you fool. What's more is that I told you the city I work in to give you a clue. You couldn't / can't work it out from such a massive clue, you moron!

  • @Burnsiebhp why dont you just answer the question fool ?

  • @Burnsiebhp Splendid my good chap.May you die laughing....and very soon I shall hope.

  • @Pennshitz - You are such a loser. Your comments only reconfirm to one and all this fact. Keep it up, you are making your beloved USA look like it is full of dimwits, just like you.

    How come you are so thick, though? Did your Mom fuck her Pa and you are the retarded result?

  • @Burnsiebhp Hahahahaha! you sorry sod. Did your sister fuck your dad and you are the result ?

  • @Pennshitz - I'm a sorry sod? Man, you are getting thicker by the minute! It is not possible for anyones sister to fuck her father and give birth to her brother, you complete and utter idiot! How old are you 12?

  • @Burnsiebhp LOL YES she can.You see your mother would also be your sister,you moron.I shoulda known your little peee brain would'nt get that.
