2001 Cobra
I posted this thread in both the SVT and this section because i wasnt sure which one to put it in lol. Anyways, some of you probably know i totaled my car the other week. I hear from the insurance company tomorrow about it and i'm almost set on getting a 2001 cobra. What do you guys think, good buy?

Termis are a little to expensive for my price range, they are around 20 grand for a nice looking one. The major difference is that the 2001 cobras have 320hp and the termis have 380-390hp, im pretty sure. They also have a different hood and front bumper and i think rims also. If they were cheaper i would def jump on one.

I've said it time and time again, the '01 Cobra is one of my favourite modern musclecars. I love them, they look slick, great factory rims, awesome interior and guages and lets not forget about the high spinning 4V and IRS. Full exhaust full bolt on '01's with 4.10's are an absolute blast to log miles in. You won't regret it if you choose to pick one up...

Well you'll be happy then! Im almost positive i am getting one but i was just seeing what unput you all had since you're the experts lol. That is exactly what i want to do to it to. Full exhaust, long tubes, mid pipe, cat-back, 4.10s, intake, etc.

If you do decide to go that route you won't be disappointed. As I've posted before my good friend is a sales manager at a dealership. Some guy traded in his '01 with the above mods I mentioned for a new RX-8 (what a ****!) I got to use the '01 for a weekend. It was the same silver as my car and Goddamn beautiful. Since I'm a fox guy I expected it to lack the low end grunt I'm accustomed to. The 4.10's which are too much in foxes (IMO only) more than made up for it in the '01. I truly hated returning the keys to that car. Do it!!!

I prefer silver, then black and then red. All 3 look great so you really can't go wrong. Yellow is out of the question for me...Oh, and I think a sonic blue was released as well and that scores right up there with silver and black.
