When you say "It sounds like it wants to start but wont" are we talking you can hear the engine cranking but it wont catch, or its "ticking" or what? Have you tried giving it gas as your turning the key?
ps. 04 cobra only because it would more then likely have less miles. Both are equally nice cars.

Same thing happened to my car two weeks ago. It was fine the night before and then wouldn't start the next day. 0949er had a good question. Does it sound like its trying to start and just not catching or does it start clicking when you turn the key? Mine sounded like it wanted to start but just wouldn't catch and eventually it would start clicking. I bought a new battery and haven't had a problem since. If it sounds like it's trying to start but just won't start at all and is not clicking when you turn the key, take your alternator out and have it tested. Thats what happened to my other mustang. New alternator cleared it right up.

More to come in the future.
My pony does crank over, but doesnt start. also the battery is brand new, and i just changed the alternator a month ago... i guess im a just take my baby to the ford
Thought it could be a camshaft position sensor or crank sensor - but since it's starting when you give it the sniffing salts, you're most likely getting a spark alright.
These cars shut off the fuel injection when they have problems with the anti-theft system I think.
Oh well I'm voting for the '04
