08 GT, unless you really really like the older Cobra.

08..... i had a choice between a 03 cobra and the 05 gt test drove both and i got the 05gt. Sure the power was great but i NEVER liked the feel of the 99-04's.

i can say most of the answers you'll get here will be biased as this is the s197 section.

i say test drive both for a good 20 minutes. whichever one you like the most, there's your answer.

we all know that termi's can do serious damage especially with high numbers and insane boost.

BUT..so can the s197s. do it right and you'll be flyin.

Depends on what you want. If your lookin for provenbig, easypower,then go for the cobra, If your lookin forrefinement and a solid new chassis then go for the 08. Honestly I can't wait to see what the 09-10 models will be packing. Hopefully it wont just be another special apperance pkg with a CAI and a strut bar.

Only if the 03' is a Terminator with the S/C. They are awesome.
