I liked the 00' Cobra R's, minus that wing that came on them. 5.4L engine w/ 385 hp @ 6250 rpm.

Then again it was not much of a daily driver car. "the 2000 R came stripped of any stock feature not needed for track use or that would add excess weight."

<-- 97 Cobra right here. They started the cobra line up again in 93, then in 94 SVT was started, so 93-99 there were cobra's, no cobra in 00 except the very rare cobra R, one in 01, not sure about 02 since they went through a redesign engine wise, then 03-04 was SC'd. 93 and 00 were the cobra R's which are very rare compared to the regular cobra's.

There was no Cobra R in 96, it was a 95. You also forgot the 94 and 95 Cobra's.

I had a '97 Cobra but it did not compare to my '03. 03/04 is the only way to go.
