03/04 are nearly identical the 03 has some 10th anniversary stuff, seats and whatnot powerplants/trannys/drivetrain identical they are rated at 12.90s but i've seen better out of them. and no its nothing like your 98 lol

Its nothing like your 98 and not all 03's have the 10th anni. package. This site should answer all your questions:

They're about the same...Just color's & far fewer production #'s in 04....I would search for the best possible deal!

+1 ..

The only real major differences outside of color, are small things.. like I believe there isn't a net in the driver's cabin like there is on the 03' and small things like that.

The 2004's did come with a bit of better emissions though; however, you're not really going to notice that as you didn't buy it new. The 2003's had a Gas Guzzler tax on it.

True, the cats were changed on the 04 to get 1 mpg better than the 2003, and thus having that tax removed....10th Anniversary Edition Cobra in 2003 came in 3 colors, Black, Red & Silver, special badging, carbon fiber trim, red interior inserts and red calipers + different wheels....

Terminator was nothing more than a code name within SVT when they were designing the 03/04 Cobras, it just stuck and is just a nickname.
