Default New Ride - 2003 Cobra

I got rid of my GT500 several months ago and spent some time concentrating on other things. After going without a toy for a while, I decided it was time for something again. I had a 2005 supercharged GT, then a 2008 GT500....this time I wanted something completely different, an 03-04 cobra. After looking for several weeks on varies sites, I came across this one in WV. The car only had 16,187 miles on it and was a 1 owner. The motor had around 6,100 miles on it....the original one popped because a tuner loaded a bad tune on it. So the owner went to lethal performance and purchased a brand new Al Papitto-Boss 330 racing short block (along with other goodies) and built a brand new motor.....see picture below & signature.

I had the car delivered last Tuesday and immediately took it out to MV Performance in Statham, GA so they could install an new Magnaflow high-flow catted x-pipe and swap out the existing catback with a new Borla Stinger catback. When they were finished with that, it was put on their Mustang Dyno to have a new dyno tune installed on it.

Here are some pictures. You can also see the dyno run and a walk around video of the car found in my signature.























Let me know what you think.

Extremely nice car you picked up...600 whp?! How does it compare to your previous stangs? I dont care much for that body style, but the cobras look sick with the front and rear bumpers, especially lowered

To concentrate on other things for a couple of months. There are now ~16,400 miles on the Cobra.
