I heard somewhere that '03 Cobras are somehow better than the '04 Cobras.

Can anybody verify this and tell say why, common sense tells you the newer the better.

They are the same car, and no newer isn't always better though

The headers on the 04 are a tiny bit bigger i think, but not enough to add any power, simply to fix the head ticking problems they had in the 03.

The '03 10th Anniversry has a nicer 2-tone Red/Black interior, which a lot of people liked. They are using it again on some of the '07-'08 Special Edition Shelby Cobra cars.

And the '04 Mystichrome package also has a special (mystic and charcoal) two-tone interior.
