Default In the market for another mustang found this 5.4L

Like it says im in the market for another mustang i was planning on buying a cobra but i ran across this 96 gt 5.4L http://www.mautofied.com/1996-Ford-m...ing/100246380/ I was wondering why the hp was so slow considering its a 5.4L. What do you guys think is it worth $5500 or should i just buy a cobra?

A 5.4 isn't a magic hp cure. It will beef up the power curve but you won't see amazing peak gains. I'm interested to see more details on the car.. this guy was pretty vague.

either 99 - 2001 i would like an 03/04 cobra but i dont have the kinda of cash around to buy one. I have also heard about the 99 Cobras being a bad year is that true? . I found this 2001 Cobra the other day http://www.mautofied.com/2001-Ford-M...ing/100243521/ Its one of the nicest i have found so far.
