Ford's drag-strip-ready Mustang Cobra Jet (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/ford+mustang+cobra+jet/) is back for 2014, and it's sporting a few changes to make it even better - both in competition and while sitting still. Rolling off the assembly line ready for duty in the NHRA Stock or Super Stock classes, production of the 2014 Cobra Jet is limited to just 50 units.

Racing upgrades for 2014 include the addition of a new three-speed transmission and a parachute mount, and while these will make the car better in the quarter mile, the Cobra Jet's new colors will make it look better tearing down the track. Buyers can now get their racecars painted up in Gotta Have-It Green or a custom, Cobra Jet-exclusive matte black hue. Ford (http://www.autoblog.com/make/ford/) and Ford Racing (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/ford+racing/) have already teamed up to make this an incredible factory drag racer with a full rollcage, massive Hoosier slicks, a race-tuned suspension setup and a supercharged 5.0-liter V8. Now, if only wheelie bars came standard (http://www.autoblog.com/2012/11/21/ford-mustang-cobra-jet-wheelies-with-abandon/)...

Unlike the confusing third-party ordering system announced for the COPO Camaro (http://www.autoblog.com/2013/03/07/2013-chevy-copo-camaro-announced-with-two-new-engines-and-manual/), all you need to snatch up a 2014 Cobra Jet is $97,990 and good timing (as the cars will be sold on a first-come, first-served basis). Ordering opens up next month with production commencing in July.
