Because i won't be able to afford the 10k you'd probably ask for it

I'd prolly ask around there. I would need at least 10K to consider selling it. I don't know what would happen if I listed it for sale. I might try just for the hell of it. I really really want an 03-04 Cobra, but I would need to sell both notches for that, not just one.

I'll try not to. I'm really getting pulled to this 04 Cobra by me. I want it so bad, but don't want to finance 20K. Not with my mortgage, and other utilities, etc...

I'd like to sell two cars and only finance a little bit.

I love ur kewbra but in all honesty - i'd sell the cobra before hackjob. Hack is just way too rare. Just IMO

Oh man, coupe. That's what some of my friends and my womenz says. It's hard though since I've had the Cobra before I was even a stangnet member. October 2001 is when I picked it up. We'll see what happens.

they work awesome...you have to adjust them stiff to drive on the road... if you adjust them to be soft, so the car lifts easy in the front, then you hit bumps hard... but as for the functionality there really good, my front end lifts alot more than stocks so i get my weight transfer to the back of the car, where i want it...

So these shocks would not be good for autocrossing? I've searched for an autocross setup, and haven't found much info...looks like most everyone is into drag racing.

Bilstiens or Koni's would be your best bet for autocross....

Look into maximummotorsorts.com, they are pretty much the mustang autoX one stop shop!!!


SVT32VDOHC..... This is just my 2cents, I wouldnt sell hack job or your 96 just to get a run of the mill 03/04 Cobra. Im not a huge fan of 2V motors, but in notch, that is just plain sick, & rare. & your 96 Cobra is cleaner than hell & most likely could beat a pullied Cobra... I love terminators, but they are sooooo common in my area that Im tired of them, plus most of the owners out here with typical modded Terminators think that they are untouchable. Its funny though because once they go to the track they run a 13.0 or 12.9 & get shattered. Just too damn heavy!!!!

Terminator motor in a Notch though, now thats the ultimate stang....

I think the same thing about selling my cars. They are both built by me...not Ford. And thank you for the compliments. I appreciate it. You have nice rides yourself! I know I could beat a few 03-04 Cobras around here. There aren't that many though, I'm in Michigan and times are tough for a lot of people. I see your in Cali, where I know people have it a lot better than most people here in MI. I really haven't been beat my much that I run into on the street. I only lost to a 600RWHP 97 Cobra. I've beat HCI GTO's, Camaros, Vipers, 405HP Z06's. MY car is much faster on the street than at the track because it hooks. I just like the whoa factor of the 03-04's. I tried to buy a new one when they came out, just before I supercharged my 96, but I was 21, I just couldn't afford it then. I just sold my 91 notch today for those who don't know.... My garage needs a break, and so do I. I need some time to think.

Thanks again for the kind advice and comments!
