Built Mach 1 trade for 03/04 Cobra?

Im curious as to why you would trade this sexy a** thing? That 600hp beast would blow a lot of 03/04 cobras out of the water.
Just seems like after all the cars you have bought and sold, I dont think you want a ford. Seems like you need a corvette or something similar.

You might have something there. It can't be a 2-passenger with kids though. :shrug:
Understandable. By the looks of it, you have a money tree in your back yard. Keep the car and get a nice family vehicle
The Ford Flex is really nice *hint*. \But then again. I have a car that can keep up with 03/04 cobras with bad driver mod and I would like to purchase a 03/04 cobra. Seems what ever I do to my car, im never happy and end up wanting to never drive it. So, really, I have no room to tell you this.

Beware, the Cobra will leave you unhappy too. Manditory power adder replacement and SRA swap need to be done. I also like the Mach 1 interior better. *Take with a grain of salt*
You dont need a SRA swap or an Eaton swap out. You need to learn what these cars like and play up on it. First time out with your old car netted 11.45 @ 121 with a pathethic 1.74 60. That was with the smoked stock clutch still in the car. Stay tuned for 10's with a 1.5 60. They are right around the corner. Spec Stage 3+, 2-step, & some easy weight reduction will get me there.

Some people don't need these things, but I do. I am spoiled and need at least 600rwhp. I could live with the eaton if it is ported and spun with a lower, but the SRA is mandatory. On a summer day, there is nothing better than 600rwhp and SRA. The IRS just took all the fun out of the Terminator. As for the track, the IRS will work just fine, but I need more fun than just those track days. I did run 11.7, but my 60' was not as good as yours. Good stuff.
Car looks good man. We need to see some engine shots! You sure you don't want a lightning...
Thanks. Engine shots are coming. The valve covers and boost pipes are being powdercoated.
That's definitely a "go fast" car, but I am a more refined muscle car enthusiast :beer: What's up with the Vette?
I sold the vette and the cobra to buy an 03 viper(4000 miles). A year and a half later, I sold the viper. It was cool for a few months, then it got old. I wish I had kept my cobra(5800 miles) and my vette(6200 miles). I am selling this car because I have no time to enjoy it any more, I really want another cobra or poss. mach 1. I have to many cars that never get used, so I am cleaning house to try to get down to 1 "toy". Thanks, Jay
