australia requires more running lights because of the supposed lack of lighting on outback highways. i would totally drive a 02 RHD cobra here. ill just tell the ricers that its a special skyline edition.

Lights add HP since the light beams cut through the air creating less wind resistance. That's why the Aussie Cobras beat Terminators while being N/A.

i wish the plaid leather seats were still an option. i saw a set on ebay about a month ago but they went for $30,000

Yeah those things go for LOTS of money.. I heard some guy driving his 00 got car jacked, those seats are worth so much that they went thru the trouble of draging him a few feet from the car then they shot him. .. it was found the next day in jersey with the plaid seats and twin turbos missing.

I like the 03 & 04 Mustang Cobra better than the 99-02 Cobra because it's got 390 horsepower which is more horsepower than the 99-02's.

well I agree with you about the 99 and 01 but the 00 and 02 were flat out badass.

So wait, which year did they not have a Cobra? I thought it was 2001? I did a google image search for 2001 Cobra and it came up with a bunch of stuff. Am I going crazy?

Oh, well that would make sense then. For some reason I thought they made a "normal" version too.

I think i would have to go with the 03-04 cobra, something about that mysitc scheme they had, granted they had one in the other years, but the interior was a cool idea, id like to get one, and being able to make ungodly amounts of power is a bonus as well, the lines are sleeker as well i think. just my 2 cents..

Well there was no 2002 Cobra. Ford made an export only version for the Aussies.
