Another newbie!
I want a convertible performance car and that pretty much limits me to a Cobra (would NEVER own a 'Vette and can't afford a Viper). Am planning on buying a '03 or '04 Cobra (heard those two years were the best?) soon and want some input from those in the know. What should I be looking for? Any common issues I should look for and steer clear of?
I'm currently a Cadillac owner and have been listening to CTS-v owners crowing about how fast their cars are. I REALLY want to sell my car and get some REAL power. I test drove a '05 GTO the other day and thought IT was fast as hell. I understand that the Cobra will pretty much eat the GTO for lunch so I'm even MORE excited about getting one.

Well the 03-04 are the best years because they have the supercharger and all that stuff. But if you want ALOT of power, go with the Saleen S281 Extreme! 445HP =

Yeah really lol. saleens are fricking awesome but i think 03-04 cobra would be an awesome car to tune up. My uncle has an 03 cobra and its scary fast. 600 rwhp will put you in the back of your seat lol. Go with the 04 [sm=burnout.gif]

Saw like 6 Cobras last week here in Indy, at Kenny Brown Racing. At least one Vert. It was tuff. Makes me wish I looked harder for an 04 coupe, prior to 05 GT purchase, not like I am suffering or anything. It was at the shop, that I found out how serious the 04 Cobra engine internals are.
Good Luck !!
