Can someone explain to me what all the different models for the '05 are?

I'm hearing the '06 Cobra, '05 GT-R, '05 Steeda, and all that what not.. I'm VERY VERY confused... can someone clarify this for me? I'm sure there are other models I'm missing

Umm, are the GT-R and Cobra the same thing? I live in Canada, so buying from ford is really my only option.

California Special Back in the day, yes. Imagine what California would do if they designed cars.

It would probably have 2.73 gears and about 3 dozen catalytic converters while putting out 20HP. Damn environmental hippies. If I get an 05, the first thing I'm doing is longtube headers and ripping the cats off (once they're available) like I should have done with my 02. I didn't know NJ allows new cars to go uninspected for 4 years.

Horsepower > emissions

Well, it IS being considered for 06MY. Son of a designer has confirmed that as well as Hau Thai-Tang himself.
