They are new, and are BFG drag radials. Basically slicks inthe middle with tread only on the side to make them DOT approved: )
I guess since I am from south Africa I see them more as exotics, but my wife been from Chattanooga Tennessee hates them, loll. She thinks they are redneck, go figure as I always make fun of her for been the prom queen.

Nice! That's a mean a$$. Love the trunk.
Is it the cobra R that came with the Evo spoiler on trunk?
My pops had a 2001 GT ten years ago. I put flowmasters on the first month, I also sent it airborne on a test drive a couple years later (small mistake..).Guy said "I'll take it" after the landing. I just exploded laughing. Had to fix a couple things though haha.

Dima, this is the '00 Cobra R, mean mother of a car, 5.4litre V8 DOHC that was rated at 385/385, but with a tune a 90mm maf, it puts down 430rwhp NA. I was very close to buying this exact car but my gut said my wife would assassinate me as it has no back seats, A/C or radio and a roll bar. Street legal open track race car out the box. That was back when we were about to have our first child. Now she is numb to all the car buying so there is still hope. They came with the same internals as the Ford GT Supercar and can handle anything in terms of boost:

Talk about an attention seeker, the R no matter where you go, car shows, gas stations, restaurants, it demands attention, and peoples jaws hit the floor. It has a very intimidating presence, and is a certified panty dropper

I want to get a terminator. I've never owned a mustang but if I do, that's the one I want. Looks like it's all hopped up already. How does it compare to others you have had?
Thanks,
Warren

Have not received it yet but I expect it to be a handful as the traction control has been permanently turned off
That coupled with 600rwhp means gum guards and neck braces are in order....

Amazing car!!! Is it an Anniversary car (Red Calipers)? If so even better buy as they are RARE. Reminds me of my Sonic Blue 03 Coupe. Looks like it already has the Whipple 2.3 on it, do you know if its GenI of GenII.
Either way its all set ready to go!!! I think if you switch to E85 for about $2000 last I checked you can bump it another 70HP and TQ. Great buy!
How much boost is it running? What size pulley? What exhaust is it running? I am jealous starting to regret selling mine. Hopefully you dont track it much as I am certain with those mods it will require a roll cage.
Hopefully your E55 doesnt start to feel slow LOL
Enjoy safely!!!

E85 is no where to be found in my area but believe me, it would be a corn fed snake if we had that fuel. I believe the boost is around 18-20lbs but I have yet to get the car so I don't know. It comes with a AEM digital bandwidth and AEM fuel and boost gauge, so everything is there for monitoring. As far as exhaust goes, it has a bassani catted mid pipe with magnaflow catback. I won't track it much but you may laugh, it will be daily driven, so daily carnage will be handed out accordingly.
I will definitely run the two cars against each other but I have a feeling the top end of the cobra will rape my stage 3. Out the whole will be a whole different ball of wax
