Default Greetings all, former Mustang Enthusiast.

Just wanted to introduce myself with a little history. I currently do not own a mustang, but my first car was an Auto 89 5.0. Supercharged that and blew it to bits ( I really didn't know what I was doing back then, high school days), from there went on to a '95 cobra, left that stock with the exception of bolt-ons... Held on to that for as long as I could, having a 92 civic as a daily driver... gas prices skyrocketed, as well as insurance payments (speeding tickets) and I switched over to the dark-side of torqueless wonders...but alls well ends wellanything goes fast with a turbo I grabbed a 01 S2000, (beautiful car by the way) threw a 100 shot on there, had a stupid mechanic up the shot for me to 125 and he put the nitrous jet in backwards, (so I was probably running a 200+ shot) and I blew the head, bent 14 valves, deep scores on my cyllinder walls, and ended up winning a lawsuit against the mechanic which led me to my next and current purchase of a 2007 Honda Civic SI.

My dream car will always be a 2003 SVT Cobra (D'Oh!), and I will soon own it if I get this promotion.

Maybe if they made a 2003 Cobra R than maybe it would be your dream car, but they didnt.

Welcome to the forums, unfortunately 1BAD3V is right, do you just mean a 2003 SVT Cobra? If thats the case you shouldn't have too much of a problem getting your hands on a terminator.

Once you go black, you never go back. Or at least that is what I heard. Anyway, welcome to the board! And stay away from nitrous for a while.

D'OH! Man I was hoping I wouldn't do something stupid like that. Oh well. Yes I meant the 2003 SVT Cobra!

Thanks for the compliment on the Civic. It's nifty for what it is, but I still have problems with some of the big boys at the track!(damn FWD!)
