In a Fox body chassis.....It is. Cream of the crop. Everytime I talk to someone that wishes they still had their Fox, the excuses that seem to pop up the most are "rawness" and "simplicity". The Fox Mustang was probably the last true "muscle car" built....but most certainly not the last Mustang built. I'd drive my Fox to the crusher in a heartbeat if it meant I was driving home in an '03-'04 Cobra.you guys are acting like the 03's are the be all end all of mustangs...
for 27K i would be buying a 2011 GT
X2. $27K is a lot of scratch to throw down on a car that's coming up on 10-years-old. One that is now outperformed by your run of the mill GT.

I'm going to call your bluff on that one, but if you're really being honest... Wow.
You do realize I'm not talking trade in here right. I'm talking strait up....with no additional money exchangedI'd follow you to the crusher before I'd follow you to the Ford lot.
Why wow? Everything about the '03-'04 Cobra is better than my Coupe...or any Fox body for that matter. Nicer looking, faster, greater power potential, handles better, stops better, rides nicer, more comfortable interior, limited production, exclusivity, higher resale value, etc, etc...and in the end...it still a Mustang and basically still a Fox body for those guys who just have to own one. Trade up from an $8,000 car, to a $25,000 car at no cost to you? What's so hard to fathom?
As the matter of fact...I'd a call WOW on the guys who are so die hard about their Foxes, and blinded by their nostalgia for them that they can't see the forest through the tree's because of it.

I would never spend $27K on a USED pleasure vehicle that I could only drive 7-months of the year....I don't care how nice it is.
...but if I had the option between the two straight up.....I'd light my Fox on fire and watch it burn. Then put the flames out with dirt spun off the wheels from my new (to me) Cobra.

I have to disagree. I own both and compared to the fox the sn95 feels like a luxo cruiser pig. When driving them back to back it feels like getting out of a go-cart(SVO) and getting into a caddy(SN95). There is a HUGE difference in how it rides, feels, interior sound, stereo quality, etc. We all have our own opinions thoughI dont think the new edge cars are better looking than the fox nor are they more comfortable, but thats just me.
