Picked up my Cobra a couple of days ago. First impression. Holy Crap. I think I made the right choice. Any advice on breaking it in or first mods (dont go too crazy, yet.)? Thanks.

HAHA, if you will donate the difference in cash I will do it right away! I just gave her a ring if you know what I mean so I am kinda strapped. Some things are worth it though.

Edit: spree I just looked at your cobra page and will now go cry myself to sleep!

Edit 2: spree Why oh why did I click your link "2004 Black SVT Cobra"

heh, well i'm about to enter the ring stage too...but you're only gonna be young once. Sorry, but I don't see myself beating up on a cobra when I'm 55. That's when I'll be buying a corvette

I wish i had a Cobra that i could afford.. Owell at least i have my GT.

Niceeee that you got a Cobra. Cheap things you can do to the car is Pulley,<Dur> hyper tech programmer, 410 gear,<4vs like than gear> intake, and exhaust.<Just o/r/x or h pipe and some flows>

All those things are under $1000.

What makes me sad is that like you I could save but, the 04's are pretty much gone and that body style won't be here this time next year when I had the money. And the 06 cobra who knows what that will look like because the 05 GT is .... well you know. HAHA I guess I have been changing the subject though, so I will shut up. Some things just weren't meant to be so enough of my whining!

Congrats on the cobra alfman9!
