you were right according to my friend that works at a ford dealer ship 03 and 04 cobras come in around 3400 lbs. . .prob with out a lot of options but I don't know. in the 1/4 mile compared to a guess weight for the camaro of 3800 lbs that'd be 4 tenths of a second. given same gearing, power, and if power hit at the same time. generally speaking. but we will see what the new camaro has for starts in 3 months 1 day. then hopefully a year and 6 months we will be able to compare the to side by side.
