I'm going to be in the market for another car in about 6 months. So hers my choices. 03-04 cobra, 03-04 Z06, or wait a little longer and get a brand new Z06. Maybe a used GT500.

I'd buy used rather than assume the greater chunk of depreciation. Are you cashing out or payments?

Large down and a small payment. The payment thing is to help build my credit back up. It kinda got destroyed a whil back.

I would go with the 03-04 Cobra, it's the best bang for the buck and you can find one for 20-25K or less dependiing on the mileage... The payments will be small if you have a good size DP and you could use the extra cash for mods...

Hers the other thing... I have a mustang that only runs race fuel. I'm scared that if I get an 03-04 cobra I'll go overboard again. I'm really liking the Z06 plus I'm already kinda dooshy. Lol

Hhhmmm. A GT500 with the Hellion twin turbo system doesn't sound half bad.

Well not everyone makes peanuts, he's buying a decent used american muscle car, not a brand new aston martin, give him a break so what if he has nice toys.

Just went through a similar dilemma...
I was considering all those options myself (except the pricey C6 Zo6), and got really close to getting a C5 Z06 but figured that that model would be considered old soon. Vettes are also a luxury car so after a few years they're not so cool anymore. I ended up with an 03 Cobra because of that and because I didn't want payments.
If you don't plan on any other expensive endeavors, I would go with the Shelby. Reasonably priced, and you don't see too many around.

news flash..there are some ppl on cafords that can afford decent cars and still manage a normal life of bills, mortgage, vacations, etc lol
to the original poster, id go with the best vette u can get w/ whatever money u got. when u start to get into the upper 30s or 40s you're already in vette territory. u already have a fast mustang so why not try something else that is more balanced like a vette.
