Thats a good price....they were a tad faster than the GT's of that year. Not the best Cobras but it is a Cobra.

4 valves respond very good to mods. but remember theres only so much power the IRS can handle.

Major problems in 01... i cant recall any... might wanna check the TSB's at the top of the page

Major problems in 02... ALL THE COBRAS GOT SHIPPED TO AUSTRALIA !!!
