What should i get?
I'm currently an owner of an 89' 2.3 turbo mustang here in Tampa Florida. I have recently become disgusted with my car mainly because i've dumped about 4 grand into and being very disappointed or otherwise disgruntled so I've recently become motivated to move on to the 4.6 world of things. Now i do know a little and have read many things about the 4.6, but reading doesn't make me as comfortable. I mainly want to move to a 4.6 powered car for the aftermarket support. I don't like trying to source custom parts anymore. I just want to start with a already solid platform from which to build.
Questions....What would you pay for cobra between 99-2002? Its otherwise excellent shape seems to run good. What do you look for on a 4.6 DOHC? What are common things that break or fail? Do cobras hold up to high miles?
Here are the ones I'm lookin at.
This one makes me feel iffy about its authenticity. Plus i always thought cobras had "cobra" across the rear bumper where as this one does not.

And another

Thanks in advance for any advice or thoughts you may have. I hope to join the cobra family and i hope this gives me the chance to become a solid modular motor enthusiast in the future.

99 Cobras didn't have "COBRA" embossed on the rear.
