which one would you guys choose?
i know the cobra holds its value decently well and it can easily be tuned. its pretty much a collectors car now
i know the s550 is just super bad ass and handles amazingly and on top of that weights less. it looks sexy as fvck too.
which would you guys choose? for the cobra i would be spending around 25k or less and with the s550 i would be spending 36k or less (not too much).
thoughts?
coyote i wouldnt do any major engine upgrades maybe a CAI
terminator i would want to stay away from a super small pulley, but want close to 400whp (375+)

if you just want to be around the 400 rwhp mark s550. cobras are great but your buying a 10+ year old car thats been beat to shit (most likely) over a car with warranty (new) if you want a used one 15' theres one in hayward on mission at the vw iirc

Personally I feel that the average cost of the Terminator has stayed as high as it is because people were able to get loans for the cars. Now that the cars are approaching 15 years old, financing options are drying up. I think the price of these cars is going to have to start coming down if people still want to sell them. Lets face it, the majority of people interested in these cars are mid twenties, early 30's middle class Americans that cant afford to pay cash.

The low mileage pristine cars will always have a pretty high value on them but lol@ people trying to get $18k-$20k for 80k-120k mile modded to hell Cobras. You can get a stripper S550 GT for upper $20s, Youd have to be retarded to finance a clapped out Terminator for $20k over a brand new superior Mustang 5.0.

you can't get a new gt under 30K mine was 32900 with NO options just a gt deluxe not a premium, plus look at it like this a 03-04 cobra will have over 100k miles, no warranty and you will never know if the bozo before you beat the dog shit out of it. The car will cost 20K for it maybe 25K for a car with less than 50K miles if you can find one, also still no warranty, or you can go to the dealership and spend 10K to 15K more for a car with ZERO miles has a warranty so if the bitch blows up ford pays for the motor tranny etc plus every thing is brand new.
