Alright I have been looking at this post since it was made, and have read what everyone has said. I love my Cobra and would never go back and change the day I bought her. On the street with the mild mods I have i've only lost to a couple of cars and never a 99 and up GT.
Dont get me wrong I love the newer GT's, they look awsome and run strong. But as 95mustang said a Cobra is a Cobra is a Cobra.
And you have to know how to drive and I mean drive to get the Cobra to come alive like it can in stock form.
With the little mods i've made i'll run 12.90's all day, and I still haven't got pulley's or a timing adjuster.
Which ever way you go you will still get a great car, so have fun
