Those times look fairly accurate. Keep in mind that testing is done on brand new cars that aren't even broken in yet, and that not all testers are highly experienced drivers, and not all tests are done on proper track tires, and is often done in brutally hot weather, which affects times. So those type of times are good for a general guideline of what a given car will do. It may be faster or slower than the test times.

Most of those tests reflect what an average driver could duplicate so they don't get into trouble. Kind of like the recall of Cobra's when they were discovered not capable of what the factory claimed. I don't remember the year but Ford caught a lot of flack from the owners. Those numbers could be easily duplicated so that is what they post up. A few places actually test with a good driver and show what the car is capable of with a good driver.

it's all about the driver D

I've ran my car against an 06 auto GT that was stock and got my noise infront of him, where as i've messed with an 07 and he kept pulling hard on me untill he passed me.

the 06 auto was from a roll where as the 07 was from a dig

personally, if a website can't even take the correct time to research the size of the motor thats but into the car, i wouldn't waste my time quoting them

seeing as they didn't put a 5.4 in a cobra until 2007 i wouldn't trust that site worth a shit
the 2000 cobra R had a 5.4.
