I have never owned a vert. Im not really concerned with it. Vert or coupe would be fine with me.

03/04 cobras have a shorter throw than a gt. So he is not lying there. I thought I had a short throw also, when i looked, it was the stock T-56 shifter.

I bought mine with 88k miles on it for 17.9K. Bone stock. The 4 valve will last, I currently have 102k and plan on a ported blower, pulley, and nitrous.

I would keep looking. If it were a coupe, black, I would take the deal.

Didn't realize you had that many miles! Cobra still running strong?

I went from a GT to a 03 cobra about over a month ago. Best thing I ever did. I will honestly be driving my cobra till I retire, doors fall off etc. Its the car Ive wanted since 03 when they came out. I picked mine up for 26,000 with 4600 miles which it basically new. The feel etc is much different then the 03 GT I had. I like having a 400+ hp daily driver (Except when it snows then the cavalier comes out).

My Girlfriend loves the seats but I know she thinks shes hot $hit in it when we go out.

I get it or look around. The longer you wait the more miles alot of 03-04 cobras are going to rack up unless you buy private through a person who garaged it alot.

Yep, only thing wrong is the valve seals. Smokes at start-up. dynoed 367 to the wheel, along with 355 tq.
