I wanna say the 2004 cobra, but I dont like the mystichrome color as much as I like silver and black.

Cobra Hands down, why pay all the $$$$$ for the saleen/ Roush when it is just a GT with a supercharger/Body kit slapped on it? They are cool but a rip off IMO, Plus i am not a big fan of the new stangs appearence. The Terminator looks mean as hell, tons of performance potential out of the bullet -proof 4V and the mystichrome paint is the coolest i have ever seen on a "from the factory" car. So the only REAL choice here is the Cobra, HANDS DOWN...................PS get the Vert

I agree, the terminator has alot of potential, but the roush and saleen are only on 4# of boost if i remember correctly, so theres alot of potential to gain just from pullies and the obvious bolt-ons, but i love the mystichrome paint. its a BIG toss up they are all rated right at 400 HP so it all boils down to what you like as far as looks, but then again the roush stage 3 has all the beefed up suspension... SIGH i dunno

The Cobra has the 4V engine and it is STRONG as hell. The others have the 3V and if you go 99-04, 2V, both of which would have to be built to be able to handle the HP#'s the 4V can stock, you can get the Cobra for MUCH less than a new Saleen / Roush..money that can be put to good use on mods. Plus the Cobra has the 6sp tranny....and in the may issue of 5.0 Mustang they have a 854rwhp 03' Cobra that "never had its valve covers off" so the best deal here is the Cobra man, but its your money

Terminator Cobra of course, as long as it isn't Mystichrome. Not a fan of that color at all. [:'(]

well if the final decision is the 04 cobra , it will be the mystichrome, its not only my choice in the matter so we need to comprimise, but there was only right over 1000 produced, so we just trying to get something unique, no matter about money, money isnt an issue
