What year Cobra? If you are speaking of a '03 Cobra VS a 94-98 Cobra... you might as well compare a Acme rocket to a turtle.

The 94 and 95 GT's were slower than the 96-98's.

94-95 GT's are 215 hp?
96-97 GT's are 215 hp?
98 GT's are 225 hp?

94-95 cobras are 240hp?
96-98 cobras are 305hp?

someone correct me if im wrong..not sure of the TQ specs but thats how they are HP wise.. 98 Gt's run wut high 14's low 15's at the track if a good driver? Im guessing that a cobra would run mid 14's at the track since 94-98 were the heaviest years of the mustangs, and how it being a convert it just adds more weight to it.

94-95 gt are faster then 96-97 gt, but are slower then the 98 gt's. The 5.0's low end power beats the high power of the 4.6.

94-95 GT = 225hp
96-98 GT = 225hp

94-95 Cobra = 2445hp
96-98 Cobra = 305hp

I want a 97 or 98 Cobra but I really don't want to be raped with insurance.

How about 03 Cobra vs. 05 GT? Stock

Not planning on switching or anything, just curious.

If you're looking for stock HP numbers then, 03 Cobra = 390hp stock vs. 300hp for '05 GT.
