Actually a tough decision... i think the GT350 takes the cake. I still will be picking one of those up eventually.
I like the 350 (haven't driven one) but I LOVE the Terminator. The noise and rawness is what I'm after but I just go cruising in it. No track duty.
Perhaps a dumb question but do the '19+ GT-350s have oiling concerns like I've read about earlier years? Maybe something to consider?
Good luck either way OP. Post pics of the new ride when you're done.
I really want to do a coyote swap with a 10 spd in my 90 coupe. It has a irs that might have to go though...GT350 > 03 04 cobra. Throw a whipple on it and the cobra is over. Heck, I will take 10 speed coyote over an 03 cobra. I know the cobra is limited, I know the history of the car I get it. Better ride, better motor, better supercharger kits than the 03 cobras, its a combination of things that make the newer mustangs better. coyotes are trapping 170+mph with a twnscrew. Easier to make power. The terminator wont touch that. shots fired! lol. damn I am anti terminator now lol. maybe its time to sell!
Tough call - depends on what your after. The 350 is an awesome all around car - technology, handling, sound.
03/04 Cobra still my favorite body style - raw muscle car performance. If I had to get rid of one the 350R would probably go - might have a change of mind if I had a whipple/turbos on it
Whip Industries makes the lift - single post supports 7000lbs.what type of lift is that? Never saw one like that. I have a drive on 4 post type, but when I saw your pic, there are no posts in the foreground. Looks cantilevered from one side, is that correct?
Emotions out of it the GT350 is awesome. But the 03/04 Cobra will always be thought of fondly. Drive on a ford lot and I bet you get more looks in a Cobra than the 350. When I would bring mine around the dealership everyone fawned over it cause they aren’t too many around here. I see more 350s than I do Cobras.

Crazy how it worked out, but long story short ended up with a 17 GT350 with Recaros and tech package 10k miles.
What a car! From the handling, to the high revs, it’s exhilarating to drive. Yes, it definitely lacks on the low end, but boy does it make up for it after 3-4K rpm. It’s almost unbelievable how long this car pulls. On top of it all, it’s comfortable. Drove it 5 hours home and enjoyed it. I could never drive that far in the terminators without a chiropractor or medication.
With all that said, I miss my 03/04 cobras. I’m actually on the hunt for a driver quality one now. I miss that exhaust note and whine. Nothing replaces that.
Appreciate the responses and happy with my purchase.
PS. When I called back on the 19 GT350 the price went up to 59k. (Sticker around 64/65k) Still a good deal but didn’t want to go that high. If anyone is interested I can forward you that dealer info. It is in WV.
