gt or cobra

07-23-2001, 08:24 AM

I have a 2001 GT I purchased in March. I was also torn between the Cobra and the GT. After long debates (mostly with my wife over price differance)I went with the GT. I'm not going to try to blow smoke up your butt here just my own personal feelings about my pony.I love my GT. It does not have the h.p. or the suspension of a Cobra. The Cobra has four wheel independent suspension and there for handles better and is quicker than the GT. But for less than $23,000 I got a fully loaded GT,leather seats,a kick butt sound system,power windows,locks and seats with lumbar supports wrapped in an electric green shell that looks simply terrrrrific.My 5 speed transmission makes it a blast to drive on winding roads.I have had the car up to 130 mph in about a 2 mile run.(have not been to the strip with it yet). So ask yourself what is most important to you in your type of driving and choose from those needs. also remember that you do not know how the used car was treated. Hope I was of some help.
