2008 Ford FPV GT Cobra (Sold)

Sold

In 2007, Ford drew inspiration from the hallowed names of the past and recreated a legend with the limited-edition FPV GT Cobra. Released at the Sydney Motor Show in both sedan and Ute models, the new GT celebrated the Cobra name last seen in the Seventies on the famous white and blue XC hardtops that scored a memorable victory at Bathurst in 1977. Indeed, the latest Cobra was unveiled on a parade lap of Mount Panorama before the 2007 Bathurst 1000, exactly 30 years after Colin Bond and Allan Moffat’s triumphant 1-2 finish. As with the first-generation Cobra’s, just 400 individually numbered examples of the new FPV GT Cobra sedan were made available, snapped up by enthusiasts, many of whom already owned one of the original XC Cobras.

This Ford FPV GT Cobra was purchased brand new by the current owner from Carmichael Ford. During that time the owner has made some mechanical upgrades to the car which include Herrod camshafts, aftermarket air box and an X Force exhaust. Other extras consist of dealer fitted Bluetooth set up and a reverse camera. The Cobra is also running factory optioned Brembo brakes. It has also been tuned and runs on 98 octane fuel. Build number is 0336/400 and it is also fitted with the six-speed manual transmission which has been fitted with a Mal Wood Quick Shifter and a Hurst style lever and Tremec gear knob. All of the original parts that have been removed from the car are included with the sale. Retaining the Ford compendium and original logbooks. This Cobra is one of only 127 examples fitted with a manual transmission and is also an ’08 build which marked 30 years since the release of the Ford Falcon XC Cobras. The Cobra has recently had the roof lining re done and four new Michelin tyres fitted. Personalised Queensland issued plates “8COBRA” are also available with the car by negotiation. Now available for inspection by appointment only at our Kogarah facility.
