It’s worth noting however, that Ford failed to reveal if the next-gen Cobra Jet racer will be based on the 2015 Ford Mustang fuelling speculation it could be based on the Ford Fusion. However, all indicators point towards it being based on the upcoming sixth-generation Mustang.

Under the hood, the 2014 Ford Mustang Cobra Jet features a 5.0-liter V8 engine mated with a 2.9-liter supercharger, Just 50 units were produced with prices starting at $97,990.
