WOW!!!!! What a SWEEEEEEEEEET ride! I love the hood....

And finally, something to kick some Z28/SS/Firebird butt with! I can already hear all their whining about the supercharger though. But sometimes we whine about their additional 70 cubic inches they have on us so I suppose it will all cancel out...

That definately works.

Take care,

oooooo yea

Coupe Devil · 02-06-2002, 09:29 AM

Whats that thing on top of the motor???....is that.....yes....it could be...... YES . Its about time. I love the car but I see a problem. I dont want Ford to set themselves up to get burned again. If you look at the 5th page. In the column to the right there is an (EST) = estimated hp figure of 390@6000. I think that would be great but has anyone confirmed this. I hope there is just something I have missed but it will cause a bad situatiun if this car doesnt make that estimated 390.

Oh Ohhh Oh. I just seen something else interesting. Look at the bottom right corner of the last page. They are complaining that the car is "Too Quiet?" Thats great. I love these guys.

Stang_Crazy · 02-06-2002, 02:20 PM

I think that the 390 hp figure is HEAVILY underrated. I would expect actual flywheel hp numbers to be in the 410-420 hp. Regardless, it's still a SWEEEET car.

Hmm, If I put $10,000 down on a 2003 Cobra, I wonder what my payments would be??

95mustanggt · 02-06-2002, 03:58 PM

OK, now that is one Cobra, that I would sell my 95 for...hmmm...maybe I'll wait a bit before putting any more money in my car...

95mustanggt · 02-06-2002, 04:00 PM

I wonder what the insurance would be on one of them?

If the Buy price is $35,000 and you put down $10,000 at 8.5 % interest for 60 months the payments will be $512.91 a month. Anything else you want to know. I have a program that figues this all for me. I'm no genius like that.

Mr 5 0 · 02-06-2002, 04:40 PM

Love it!

O.K., it's out of my price range but I can dream, can't I?

About time Mustangs regained the performance status they have been noticably lacking for years while cheesy GM cars got all the 'street' bragging rights and Ford fans had to resort to bolt-on's to be competitive on the street.

That Cobra is a well-balanced, high performance vehicle worthy of the Mustang Cobra nameplate. I'm impressed.

Now, if I could just figure a way to talk the wife into having us take out a second mortgage.....Hmmmmm.

302 LX Eric · 02-06-2002, 06:03 PM

Second mortgage? Heck, just refinance your current home (assuming a decent increase in FMV) with enough "cushion money" to cover the cost of the Cobra. As long as your home secures the note, then you take the deduction on your income taxes. Plus, right now, you can obtain some pretty good rates on a 15 or 30 year fixed mortgage.

I really, really like this car...

I thought they mentioned that the aluminum blcoks wouldn't hold up too well with the new power level. Oh man, do I want one.
