dude u cant beat the sound of those mod motors. especially the dohc, say what u want about modability but the sound of a 4.6 dohc vs. a 5.0 is not fair. my buddy has a 96 cobra and sounds so damn good. plus more power and a lot better style, more of a chick magnet, what do u have to lose, slightly better gas. get the cobra.

Normally I would say that the 1996 SN95s were pieces of ****. But the Cobra was an exception. Take the Cobra... this is an easy one.

My father has a mint 96 Mystic....

I'm trying to talk him into bringing it up to FFW this year for the car show!

Even though I was disappointed with last years FFW, I'm still going this year anyway. How can i resist. Don't tell anyone, but i went to the super chevy show too

But i was with my friend who has the LT1. And yes, it kills him that he has a 350 Z28 / LT1 with exhaust and a shift kit that can't even come close to hanging with me, lol. His car is out of commission now.

get this... he snapped a header bolt so the header was rapping. But it was the bolt closest to the firewall on the driver's side. in other words, damn near impossible to get to. To make it worse, it has to be drilled out but he can't even get in enough to pull the heads. So teh entire engine has to come out to drill and replace a header bolt.

And they wonder why I chose Ford over Chevy!
