What do you think the price of the 2003 SVT Cobra should be?

I agree with 1BAD89. They should sell the Cobra to anybody wanting one.

This 200 here, 1000 there BS is just annoying. I would be looking at a 96-98 Cobra instead of a 94-95GT right now had the retards in Ford decided to actually produce a few. Yeah, resale stays high, and buyers stay low. The Mustang was never supposed to be an exclusive car; that's what the Saleen's, McLaren's, Cobra R's, and Shelby's were for. I mean, come on. As far as I know the Vette isn't even limited in production. GM sell more Vette's than Ford does Mustang Cobra's. Keep resale high? What a crock.

I can't see a single reason the sticker price of a new Cobra should be 18k higher, or literally double what the V6 is. Does it really cost that much more to have a 6spd vs a 5spd? How about an 8.8 with IRS vs a 7.5 solid? 4.6L S/C DOHC vs 3.8L OHV? Swap a couple interior pieces in. I'm just not seeing $18,000 difference here people.

I'm sure I could rant for a while. Will the new Cobra be nice, yes. Is it worth 35k? Not to me.
