I wouldn't let go of an 04 Mystic Cobra. However, C6 Z06 is a baaad boy!

Why not do both?? [Wink]

From the looks of you sig, you've already owned a mystic cobra. I say experience something new. I really don't think you can be disappointed by the C6z06.

I currently own a 04 Mystichrome. Im stuck in between whether to sell it for a z06, something new, or to keep it. Ive been in an new edge mustang for about 6 years now lol.

If you really want it then go for it. You've had the Cobra awhile but life is about enjoying new experiences and being happy with what you have until that feeling is no longer there. Go with what feels good!

i say pull the trigger. let it sit and wait to get it for market value. worst case scenario, you dont like the z06 but you can always buy another mystic cobra. thats doubtful thoughlol.

If you don't need the rear seats and have intentions of hitting the track (road course), I say go for the z06. I'm not a huge corvette fan, but I would rather have a z06 than a termi, regardless if its a mystic or not.

You're trying to compare a 70k car to a 40k car. There's nothing the terminator can do better than the z06 besides price of mods.

Shoot just have someone take you for a ride in a z06. You can make up your mind from there.

Thanks for the input fellas, really surprised to not see any bias opinions (I hope lol). Still wrapping my mind about it.

FYI - Cobra is kb with bolt ons with 51k mi and the Z06 is bone stock with 91k mi..

NEIGHT has the right idea. The Z06 looks like a regular Corvette you see every day. The Cobra is exotic and stands out. The Corvette has the technical advantage. The Cobra has soul and distinction.

91k miles on an 06 z06 is pretty high in my opinion. Is it/was it a daily driver? If you go down this road I hope you're getting it for a great price!

You can tell a lot by talking to the owner's of these two cars. Let them do all the talking and you can find out which one was more abused than the other.

The Z has high miles but if the owner drove it a lot to work and long distance drives, the miles are not abused ones. Find out if he had the head work done and upgraded. Plus, find out how many owners each car had because you don't want a "tossed" around vehicle to inherit all the problems.

The more you can talk to these two individuals about the car's, the better!

Tough choice honestly, pros and cons to both but I hope it works out. Remember this...there is nothing that sounds better than a finely tuned mustang. I get more compliments about the sound than anything else [burnout] [burnout] [burnout]

i really dont think the c6z06 looks like a regular vette. it has just as much distinction from base vette as that of a 03 cobra to a base v6 mustang. thats like saying the cobra looks like a regular mustang. the hood/front bumper/wing etc are all different. its all a matter of personal opinion though. i love my 03 cobra but the z6z06 is just as bad ass.
