look at it like this, stock for stock, it is a drivers race between the two... i personally like the new edges better, but i am a little biased... a cammed gt with LT's is probably putting 270 to the wheels, how many miles are on the GT?

I say get the Cobra if its clean. Cammed GT would sound nice, but my Cobra with basic bolt ons was damn near 300rwhp and had a lot more top end over the GTs I raced. But I am biased as well. Ultimately its gonna be your car, your decision. Dont let us tell you what to do with your money

SN-95 Cobra's are sex IMO. Although I do love cams...get the Cobra.

is it really that hard to decide??? Cobra all the way. sn95 body style is the best imo and u are getting the highly sought after 4v heads that flow way better than the 2v's. ya modding as far as cammin goes is going to be more expensive, but its worth it because the car breaths better netting more from the cams. just because a car is cammed doesn't mean that its a machine ya know. i have a budy that cammed his 98 gt with 270 comp cams and only gained 15 hp. not good gain for $ spent. and the cobra has less miles lol.
COBRA!!!!!

ide take a stock new edge over a stock/modded early sn95 anything, cobra or other.... theyre too girly lookin for me...no offense, some are really nice...but in stock form theres too many soft lines and nothing really sticks out at all to give it an agressive look...
