[QUOTE="Detroit_Doc, post: 1711558, member: 23458"] Tapout632 - It depends a lot on your situation. I live in Michigan, so a fall'06 release is the same as a spring '07 release. So for me, if they aren't going to release it in spring '06, I'd rather buy a GT this fall to hold me over. The other aspect is money. A lot of people are speculating the '07 cobras will carry a $40K price tag. My girlfriend works at ford and I bug her everyday to get me more info on the '07 Cobra. She hasn't got me a lot, but the one thing she told me was to buddy up to a dealer now. In '03 they produced something like 14,000. In '04 it was in the 3,000 - 4,000 range. In '07 they will be even scarcer. So don't expect discounts. So if you aren't ready to drop $40K+ in '07, then I'd opt for the deep discounts now being given by dealers on '04s (in in many cases '03s) that are still on the lot. The other thing to consider is what if the '07 isn't supercharged. Let's say it's just a hot N/A motor. Let's even say a 425 HP N/A motor. While that's cool, it will be much harder to bolt on the HP like the 03/04. So you are taking a risk there too. And the most important reason to buy a '03/'04 is so that I have one less person in front of me waiting for one! :) [/QUOTE]
