06 GT because the refinement of the car will be a lot nicer to live with day in and day out. As others said before you can build the new gen car as easily as the Cobra or the Mach...the after market is on fire for the new cars.

I'd take the cobra first if you can find a nice one thats not too expensive, after the 06 gt.

Exterior appearance is subjective so I'll leave that to you.

As far as perfomance goes, the 03 Cobra wins from the start. But the 05+ GTs are very strong performers themselves. I've seen those 3 valves put down nearly 500rwhp with a blower running less than 10 PSI on stock motor! That's more than enough to pull a pullied Eaton and even give a ported one a run for it's money.

If you're going for like top speed then yea the Cobra, but around town when compared to my friends stock '03 Cobra my stock Mach felt a little lighter on its feet and more fun to whip around turns and **** like that while the Kebra was a bit more of a brute. The seats feel better to me in the Mach. Also through the first couple of gears they basically pull about the same. But once modding starts it's pretty much Kebra hands down.

It would be hard for me to pass up the modability of the Cobra but I just love the 05-06 body style, especailly with a few cosmetic add ons.

Kebra.

Just too many nice things about the car.

Although at times I really like the looks of the Mach better.
