Hello,

I'v always wanted some American muscle. Fell in love with a mustang recently....

Anyway I have the opportunity to get either a 95k 5 speed, '01 white GT for 6 grand or a Red Cobra '99 for 5450 with like 84k miles.

I think the cobra is a better deal but I think red is a girly color. I really wanted a shiny midnight black or something or atleast white. What do you guys think?

Thanks

 

red is not girly! Id ****** up that cobra

 

I would definitely get the Cobra or a 4 valve. If you don'tlike the color then wait till you find what you want...you'll thank yourself in the end

 

Yea... seems pretty stupid to take a cheaper cobra over a gt because of the color.

How do I know if this cobra is having HP issues like other 99s? Or do I assume its fixed now?

 

No don't assume it was definitely fixed...I donno what to look for but try posting in the Cobra section or on SVTPerformance.com and ask...or maybe you can get the VIN checked at a Ford dealership

 

and I can't wait because I need the car for school. Guess I'll go with the cobra then if It's fixed.

Thanks

 

The cobra is defiantely a better starting platform if you plan to mod..

 

Well thats a shame cause I think you'd really be better off with an 01 Cobra instead

 

99.999999% of the '99 Cobras have been fixed. If you want to make sure look at the driver's side lower intake (near the alternator bracket) and you will see either a blue or green dot. These dots indicate that the car has had "the Fix" done. You can also call 1-800-FORD-SVT or your local dealer and give them the VIN, they'll check the OASIS report for the car and confirm.

P.S. Get the Cobra, you'll regret it if you don't.

 

where in md is that cobra at...maybe ill go steal it if you dont lol
