I just bought a new Porsche 911 and my wife (who runs our finances) won't let me keep the Cobra too (even thought I love it). It's a black 2003 Cobra, loaded, with 4500 miles. Plus, I bought the expensive extended warranty which transfers so you can buy with total peace of mind. Never...

Hello :)

This is going to come as a shock to you, but my Cobra is... black. I'm thinking about the rear bumper inserts but don't have a good sense of which color to use (and manufacturer). I've done searches and folks recommend different manufacturers, but I haven't seen pictures of black Cobras with...

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: Do yourself and your drivetrain a favor and buy the HorsepowerByHermann/Amazon Racing anti-hop kit. I can't believe that a set of shocks has made such an enormous difference in my car. You might recall my last post on the hop subject was titled "Wheel Hop Makes Me...

As the weather gets colder and colder, I hate the wheel hop more and more. Plus, it feels like something is sure to break one of these times. I basically have to go S-L-O-W in first and second gear or else I hop. Given that so much of urban driving is first and second, I gotta say that my GT...

I want to have a picture of a black 03 as my full screen background. Can anyone help a brother out? Ideally it would be one with the stock horse in the grill opening, rather than the snake some have put on (which I love, but doesn't match my car).

In the last 24 hours, I did the following power mods at Springfield Motorsport in Lorton, VA: Pulley/belt, Diablo Delta chip, Bassani catted x-pipe/cat-back system, and Densecharger CAI. After everything, I got on their Dynojet dyno and pulled 462.1 horsepower and 500 ft.-lbs. of torque SAE...

I found negligible gain with tailpipe baffles out, although maybe that will change when I change the pulley on the supercharger. It is noticeably louder with baffles out so I'm thinking I'll leave them in to appease the neighbors. But if folks think baffles out makes more than negligible power...

Need some feedback on the following, please. Added Densecharger CAI plus Bassani catted x-pipe/cat-back system plus Diablo Delta chip and Dynojet dynoed at 428 RWHP and 412 FT/LBS TQ SAE. (Uncorrected was 444 RWHP/428 FT/LBS). Adding Lightning pulley tomorrow and will then do another dyno and...

The brand-new December 2002 issue of Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords features a stock 2003 Cobra with an exhaust job (BBK 1.58 inch headers, 2.5 inch BBK off-road H pipe, plus Flowmaster catback) and K&N filter that resulted in a gain of 55 horsepower and 40 lbs.-ft. of torque. With this...

I missed the Bassani group buy from a couple of months ago. Is anyone working on another one? I have zero ties to any speed shop, etc., but wonder if others are interested in getting another group buy going?

Talked to Bassani about the availability of the anticipated header for the 03 Cobra. They said it will be unveiled at the SEMA 2002 Show in Las Vegas the first week of November and will go on sale just after that.

Just picked up the September issue of Automobile Magazine with the cover story "50 Hottest New Cars of 2003." The supercharged "390 horsepower" 03 Cobra didn't make the list. You'll be excited to know that a 170-hp version of the Mazda Protege made the list as did a longer version of the...

Does anyone know about this system? I had a Borla on my old LS1 and it was indestructible and sounded great. http://www.borla.com/automotive/?cartID=20020831215710207.172.11.148 Make FORD Vehicle MUSTANG Model COBRA 4.6L V8 AT/MT RWD 2DR legend Year 1999-03 Part...

Can anyone recommend a tuner or installer in the VA/MD/DC area? For years I have heard that Springfield Motorsport in Lorton, VA close to DC has done notable work on 5.0 Mustangs (as well as some older 4.6 liter motors), but wonder if they have done anything with the very special 03. Is that...

Anyone know of any 2003 Cobra's available in the Maryland or Virginia area? I'm in Washington DC so southern half of MD or northern half of VA are easy. Ideal is black (or blue), but flexible. Thanks for reading this.

:fm: I ordered a black coupe from Ted Britt Ford (in Fairfax, VA only 20 minutes by cab from Washington National or VA Dulles airports) in mid-February and have been disappointed with the delays, including most recently being told my car had a 7/22 build date and should arrive "in August." On...
