More pics of the Mustang FR500CJ Cobra Jet

Following up on a previous video that was posted of the new Mustang FR500CJ engaged in some dragstrip action, we now have some more pictures of Ford's new Cobra Jet.

Ford is supposedly only going to build 50 of these dragstrip terrors, all of which are powered by a blown 5.4 liter 32 valve V8 based on the GT500 motor.

The engine has been breathed on heavily over the "stocker" and much has been stripped off the car to save weight. With it's "big and little" tire combo, it looks track ready.

We'll have more details on the FR500CJ when they become available. And seriously, if you haven't seen the video, check it out here. It's well worth it just to hear the this thing run down the strip.

2010 Camaro equipment list revealed

The much anticipated 2010 Chevrolet Camaro is only a few months from making it's showroom debut across America, and now we are getting the standard and optional equipment content that will be available for all five models of the car.

Customers wanting to order a Camaro can choose from LS, 1LT, 2LT, 1SS and 2SS models, and standard and optional equipment varies greatly between each package. The base model LS comes equipped with OnStar, 18-inch rims, and a 300-hp V6 engine, and the only optional item is floor mats. The 1LT package includes optional 19-inch rims, a Boston Acoustics sound system and a sunroof. The 2LT gets standard 19s, the sound system, leather seats, ambient lighting and Bluetooth and USB connections.

If you want your Camaro to include a 422-hp V8, you'll need to step up to the SS. The 1SS package includes standard 20-inch rims, four-piston Brembo brakes, a limited-slip differential and engine and transmission cooler. Options include polished aluminum wheels, a sunroof, and the upgraded sound system.

The 2SS model adds all the standard features of the 1SS package and the 2LT package plus options including dual rally strips, a sunroof, and the Inferno Orange Accent interior. All trims except for the LS model have the option of adding the RS package, which gets you 20-inch rims, HID lamps, a spoiler (for the LT model), a Midnight Silver paint finish, darkened tail lights, and body colored molding.

Sales of the new Camaro may still be a few months away, but you'll be able to order one from a local dealer beginning October 13th.

Teaser pics of the 2010 Mustang's front fender and mirror

The painfully slow reveal of the 2010 Mustang continues this week with the unveiling of the front fender and mirror. The photo reveals a more curvaceous hood line that dips down to the headlight more so than the current design.

Another difference is the fender, which flows from the hood to the wheel well in one smooth line rather than the current one that has a more pronounced and angular flare.

We also get a look at the rear view mirror, the top half being painted instead of the previous textured black look.

While Ford continues to play with our emotions, we still have seven more weeks of teaser pictures before the official unveil of the car.
