Well, im considering trading my 03 cobra coupe for a 01 cobra vert. I want a vert but I cannot afford the 03 vert, so im doing a little research. Also, I think I want to go back to N/A, more reliable and less worries.

What kind of mileage can you get on a 01 vert? I just dont want to downgrade mileage wise.

why?

well im just going to add this.

03 coupe = bad azz, especially if you install the right sun roof.
01 conv. = still bad azz but a couple hundred more pounds and the top sometimes leaks, about half a second slower than the 01 coupe too.
I would stick to the 03 if gas and having a convertible is a worry then just go get a GT.

I'd think you'd lose more money on a trade in than you'd gain by having a little better gas mileage

Actually I want a vert the most, but 03 verts are too expensive. I was just curious if theres any mileage improvement.

I could never chop up the roof of this car to put a sunroof on, that would be sacrilegde! Besides, its still not the same

By the way the 01 Cobra vert is still lighter then the 03 Cobra coupe.

Checked it Monday and got 22 mpg with combined driving. I usually get 20-21 with two or three romps.
