Talking A Sixers Dream... lol

Hey SVT Owners. Ive been hangin around downstairs in the V6 forums...and after doing a lot of research, I have come to one conclusion. With the kind of money that i would be pouring into a V6 to somewhat "AMP" its characteristics, i could totaly buy a bigger and badder stang.

So just recently ive set my sights on a preowned Cobra SVT between the years 2003 - 2004. So im still just working on research at the moment but i look forward to drawing in some more funds this summer and cant wait to show you guys my new pride and joy. (Hopefully everything works out. )

A preowned SVT, from what ive seen, runs at an average of $24,000. I need 20% to make the loan. Approximatly $4,350 - Totaly do-able )

Good luck and just don't be a tool bag when you get it lol.

Edit: Remember to do all the supporting mods IRS brace, Head cooling mod & IRS bushings. Join svtperformance.com you will learn a ton over there.

By tool bag do you mean someone who totaly abuses their car to the point that the check engine light comes on and u start hearing funny little clanking noises? If you do, then dont plan on it.

You should see my sixer, it get babbied. The only thing i ever do that is slightly questionable is open it up every once and a while on the highway. Other than that i take it easy.

^^ nice. What color do you want? Remember do not launch your cobra without a IRS brace. You should buy the part b4 you get the car so when you get the car you can put it on asap.

Just look at the pics and all the threads on SVTP of what happens if you don't have one. I did a lot of research before I bought my car and its best to get all the supporting mods and safety things done first. Nothing worse then having a $22k+ car and having something break on it the first week you get it, and all could have been prevented.

By the way I'm going at selling things
