I am looking to purchase an SVT Cobra convertible and I was wondering if its worth paying more for the post 1999 version of the Mustang versus going with a 1998 or older Cobra, which will cost me a little less money. I know that SVT equipped the Cobra with Independent Rear Suspension in 1999 and the motor came stock with 15 to 20 more rwhp, but I wasn't sure if there was anything else missing in my consideration that would make a pre 1999 as a good a car/buy as the post 1999 car.
I could buy a nice triple black 1998 Cobra convertible for less than $7k and I am looking at more than $11k for several 1999 and 2001 convertibles.. Should I spend the extra money, all things be equal, for the 1999 or newer or should I save the cash and go with a nice clean 1998 or older even though those cars have solid rear axle and less rwhp?
Appreciate your time and feedback.
