Got the Cobra!!

I've always wondered what it was like to drive either a Mach or a Cobra. The only true "sports car" that I have ever driven myself has been my stang. And my measly 230 rwhp seems pretty quick to me at times (I used to drive an Elantra before :doh: ) so I can only imagine how you Cobra and Mach owners feel.

When I sold my very first car (84.5 GT350 Auto Hatch) I got an Elantra, now there was a fast car:rlaugh: Sadly enough it was quicker than the 84:bang: This is my eighth stang and second Cobra and the Cobras really are special cars to drive, I know they have better engines and brakes, but they just feel better than normal Mustangs:shrug: Same goes for the Machs, drove my friends and fell in love with it, one of the main reasons I sold my GT to get a Cobra.
 
In my opinion, after driving the new 2007 GT's and my cobra,I can honestly say that the Cobra feels just as quick.

I wasn't interested in getting something that was super fast but the Cobra had just enough umph to make me happy:D
 
I started out with a 96 GT auto with probably a measly 185 rwhp (no disrespect non pi owners) . Since this was my 1st stang it felt fast to me, until I got beat by a Maxima & a Lincoln LS. then i stepped up to a 97 Cobra & this thing felt like a beast compared to the 96 GT. Then i purchased the 03 Mach which at first felt a little faster than the Cobra, but I just thought it was the gears. I have raced my buddys 96 cobra numerous times in the Mach & even with 4:10's vs my 3:55's, he has never even came close to pulling on me. Dont get me wrong though, 96-98 Cobras are badass & they are my favorite late model stangs, & they are plenty fast.

Now I finally got my first 5.0 (95 Gt 5 spd), & after driving a 32V, this thing isnt very impressive bone stock....I love it anyway because I always wanted a 5.0 & I know the potntial it has...

I have a feeling I'll probably get tired of the car in a few months and then I'll buy Saleen S7. Hahaha heehhe yeah right.............

I could never get tired of hearing 32Valves @ 6800 rpm's....

If my 97 Cobra didnt have so many little flaws that bothered me, I would still have it today...Im just anal as hell about my cars lookin good, & the paint needed work...Other than that, I loved the car & one day i want to get another one....
 
Yeah, I'm like that too.

I actually want to get a set of the '95 Cobra rims. I think those are the ones that are all polished without the black trim like the ones on the 96-97's.
 
Those are the 94-95 Cobra's.... those wheels arent bad, but I think your stockers are better....

If u do run those, get some wheel spacrers in the rear to push them out in the back a little more...

If it was my car, I would get the anthracite deep dish Ford GT replicas in 18X9 & 18X10.... It would look sweet with the white:flag:

here they are....

Those look pretty sweet. I was also considering the deep dish Black bullets with the satin rim.
