has anyone ever driven both a coupe and vert cobra.just wanna know how much of a difference it makes.i found a vert that i really like but not sure about it being a drop top.
second when i get my cobra im gonna be swapping the t56 and irs into my mach and i might sell it afterwards but not sure yet.wondering what i should ask for it if i decide to sell it.

A vert? Are u serious? JK.... I think u should stay away from the vert tho imo.... Verts are sick for cruisin, but your trying to drag race.

Ok it is a nice Snake & has some good mods. The MM Subs & IRS bushings are a definate plus. I dont like whatever that thing is around the license plate on the decklid. I cant beleive those cars are still going for 27K with 37K miles on them though. Even though the termi is faster, I still like the Azure Mach better.

I know theres a triple black 03-04 cobra vert on arden and fulton at the volkswagen dealership. Its on black cobra wheels too. If you're looking for a 'vert you should go check it out since its in Sac.

As funny as this sounds, I would rather have the Cobra than an E55 AMG anyday IMO. Your Cobra is clean..

Thanks for the compliments, I'm an old man so I should have something more "grown up" E55"s are very refined cars. They actually handle extremely well and bone stock are capable of beating pullied Cobras. They come stock with like 470hp and 516 TQ and run like 12.2 in the 1/4 mile [Big Grin]

I hear ya on gettin old & wanting something fast, but comfortable & luxurious. And I know that alot of em are faster than most of our stangs, but i gotta have a Stang in the stable, & u got the top dog stang. Benz's, beamers, & other luxury sedans are just boring & blend in too much imo. I dont care how fast they are, I would still miss my stang if I drove one. I would take an M5 though, but it would have to have a 6 spd manual.
