[QUOTE="Osiris, post: 15778274, member: 6537"] I haven't owned the Cobra long enough to form a really cohesive opinion about it, but I can offer this... I have a '16 GT350 now. It'll slaughter the Cobra as it sits. Maybe if I start tinkering I'll get the Terminator in the business of terminating, but for now, the 350 will out-perform it in every way, especially on track. The car simply amazes. That's fine for me. I bought the Terminator to terminate boredom on long cruises and car shows predominantly anyway. I traded in a track-pack equipped '14 GT that had some minor bolt ons and suspension work. It was pretty quick also, faster than the Cobra, at least from my very minor seat time with it. The Cobra does feel more special...It's probably the boost whine and mystichrome paint though. lol The comments above are spot on. The newer car will have newer tech and if you're used to it, that'll matter. If not, it won't. I also agree that the Cobra being a special model will always remain so. If you go with a garden variety Coyote vs. a Boss or GT500/350, you'll see values drop. I kept my '14 for about two years, bought it way below invoice, put cash down and got high book in trade value for it. I still lost money. In contrast I paid about 2k more for the Cobra than I got for the '14 this past week. That's pretty amazing resale for a 13 year old car. [/QUOTE]
