car rag said:What is surprising is the level of civility that goes with all of this. The GT500 is by definition a muscle car, but it's not one of those remorseless brass bushing brutes that make their owners pay for visceral gratification with a relentless assault on their hearing and skeletal integrity.

About the exhaust they said
"The tubular-steel exhaust manifolds fit into a Bassani X-pipe, which connects through standard Cobra catalytic converters, to Borla mufflers and tailpipes that exit out the side. The sound is throaty but never invasive."
Concerning the ride they said
"Perhaps the most commendable aspect of the Cobra R, though, is its polite road manners. Even with the stiff suspension, the ride, though plenty firm, is entirely tolerable. The powertrain never seems peaky or frantic. And those Recaro buckets: If you have to be stuck in a traffic jam, there is probably no better place to sit."
The negative things they said included
"Lows: High price, low availability, lack of creature comforts as a daily driver."
"we're driving on a rural Texas road that is not quite gravel, not quite blacktop. We're loping along in fourth gear at maybe 50 mph, and the absolute lack of any sort of undercoating or sound deadening in the fender wells to muffle the thrown-up gravel makes it sound as though we're under attack by a battalion armed with Daisy BB guns."

I have to wonder if the author of this article ever drove a 00R, since his description is so different?
