yeah it's because most of them are broken...

I would get the Cobra... I was thinking the same thing you are.. I have 2 friends 1 with a 1000+rwhp Supra...... that hasn't ran in 14 months or so.

You should expect a very unbiassed opinion here. Good luck on your choice, as you don't choose wisely in your investigation of both cars.

a supra has much more potential and its a toyota you only have problems when you start swapping internals. my buddies sc300 is making 812hp with stock internals with a turbo and my sc300 is making 430 with a vortech with stock internals. the supra motor is by far a better motor than the cobras. you buy a supra and 500 dollars worth of electronics and you now have 600 wheel hp

Yeah, he should ask the same question at a Supra forum for an unbiased opinion.

Ya cause "it's a Toyota" seriously, did you just say "it's a Toyota" in a Mustang forum as a reason to buy a Supra over a Cobra as if the Terminator doesn't have huge potential?
I saw 2 "800hp" Toyota Supra's at Byron last year, neither could make it off the starting line. They were very happy Toyota owners, yup.

Ya, it's a Toyota, everybody trade in your Mustang's!!!

Where can a get rid of my car and get one of thesehallowed cars? It must be so reailbe that all my earthly cares will be taken away andI will never have to repair anythng as long as I live.Yeah Right.
Some people just need to get a life,a clue,or better yet both.

But really the Cobra from 03-04 cost what, $25K for a modded low milege one? Sound good to me if I has 25K to spend. Cobras put down ~360RWHP and the TT Supra ~ 320RWHP, if I am not mistaken.The aftermarket for the Cobra is larger, providing you with great bolt-on pontentil with out touching anything inside the motor. Intake,pulley, tune, exhaust. Simple, realtively cheap bolt-ons that are effective as hell.
And I would notsay a Supra has more potental, there are plenty of turboed Cobras out-there.How much do you want to spend? USA, UAW made all the way.
