The 2003 and 2004 Cobra
Looking for a crash course on the Cobra's! Can you guys tell me all about what the differences are in the 2000-04 especially 03/04 Cobra models? Do they all have the 4.6 DOHC? I've heard something about a Cobra with 5.4L is that right? Which one is the bad boy everyone talks about? I've also noticed a few different wheels on some of them. Someone please help clear the confusion!! lol
Here are a couple with those wheels...they look sweet though!

99-01 i think had 320 hp
the cobra r had a 5.4 block in it but its rare as hell, if you find one get it
03/04 nicknamed the terminator came with a 4.6 dohc equipped with a m112 and a six speed and was under rated ford and had somethin over 400 hp
i'm pretty sure the 5.4 is also in the shelby
if your going for a 99-04 i'd pick up the 03/04 for sure
hope that helps

Shelby GT500's do have a 5.4L....03/04 Cobra's do have a DOHC 4.6L with a Factory Eaton M112 SC....Forged internals!!!
Some 03/04 Cobra's making over a 1,000HP with a TT set-up without ever removing a valve cover!!

Not sure what the DSG (I assume the gray one) means but the tires fill up the wheel wells nicely. Wish mine was more like that. I would like a little more tire in the rear. Not sure I can with my Cobra rims though. I didn't put them on the car but I assume they are all the same width.
