Default 1999 Cobra...what you think

well im looking into a 99 cobra possibly, and right now what i have is the car below, the cobra is all stock, would i be dissapointed if i bought a stock cobra or should i just keep my car and do more mods as i go, if i were to buy a cobra what are some good N/A mods i could do, i would most likely do 4.10/4.30 gears and some Cams, what type of power do 99 cobras make w/ cams

give me some input

honestly i would just stick with your car....the 99's only come stock with 320 and if you used the money for mods instead of buying that you could make that cobra look stupid.....IMO if your going to get a cobra get an 03,04 because a 99,01 is just a modded *** GT......but if your really into the cobra and you get gears and all of that id say your looking at around 350

honestly not a clue on cams, this is a spur of the moment thing, the car is bone stock 1999 cobra for 9,500, so its like i dont have to much to loose on the money side, im just wondering if i should start all over w/ a more solid base on a 4v or just keep the track i am now and end up buying cams for my car in the winter.....

yea but cams are 1000+, just for the cams, then gears are 500ish, tuner-400, throttle body-350....its almost like why bother with a cobra at the stage i am w/ my car, im a cam purchase or nitrous purchase away from smoking alot of vehicles esp a 99/01 cobra
