    2003 Cobra Coupe - Silver - <26K miles

    ***Update 6/18 - Sold*** Note to other sellers - given the very high level of interest I had from Autotrader in particular (10+ very serious inquiries from the SE US) I think you can probably ask more than $20K for a low miles, fundamentally stock, unabused, very clean 2003-2004 Terminator...

    Out of state ticket (NY), VA driver

    As they say on the radio talk shows, long-time listener, first time caller here. I just got a ticket for a 71 in a 55 in NY State while I was driving my family home from a dinner out. It's a straightforward charge. I was not paying sufficient attention to my speed, I said as much, and it's on...

    Door Question

    Hi folks, I just bought a used green 99 CSVT that has just a touch of rust on the lower inside of the driver-side front door, where the outside metal laps around the inside metal. I'm thinking about replacing the door as a permanent fix because the rest of the car is perfect & relatively low...

    What to do about rust?

    This isn't about Terminators per se, although I have one... but the knowledge should be relevant across all models and types, I think. Question for all the paint & exterior gurus out there... I just picked up a 99 CSVT as a daily driver, and it has some rust starting on the inside bottom...

    Today's obligatory "Stingers are on!" post

    Yes indeed, after a year of hemming, hawing, dillying, dallying, and vacillating (not to be confused with Vaseline), today my baby finally changed from gelding to stallion. Much thanks to NINO :thumbsup: and NINOSPORT :bowdown: - great customer service when I ordered on Tuesday, and they...

    I was just about to pull the trigger on some KDWs when these magically appeared this morning. they must have found some sitting in the warehouse. I had these on my old 99 and I love 'em. If you're interested...

    Goodyear F1-GSD3 or BFG TA-KDW?

    Limiting choices only to these two tires, and ignoring price differences, which would you choose and why? How do they compare with dry/wet handling & wear? Which launches better? Feedback appreciated. I thought I had enough life left in my stock F1-GS tires to get through the low-mileage...

    Best price (reputable dealer) on F1-GSD3s?

    .... drop-shipped from a reputable dealer... Tire Rack is $812 + $32 ship - $75 rebate = $769 DTD is $216 each shipped ($864-$75 rebate = $789) Any other vendor options y'all can think of? Also aside from the $20 price difference is there a reason to go with one vendor rather than...

    What does a squealing TOB sound like?

    Periodically over the last few months I have noticed something. When it's cool outside, and the car is cold, when I let in the clutch the first time or two to reverse and pull out I hear a medium-pitch and somewhat breathy squealing sound. If you've flown on an old airliner lately, it sounds...

    Lightning killed

    www thecarconnection.com also see posts in the Lightning forums. A sad day. Maybe they'll put some more resources into the '07 Cobra... or maybe the Cobra is at risk as well?

    Anyone have MAC 2.5" catback?

    I'm probably going to hold out for the new AR system, but I did notice a local shop has the 2.5" MAC catback for a pretty good price. Does anyone have this with stock H & headers? How do you like it? Any drone? Power gains? Sound clips? I searched around ALOT (this board and others)...

    Got FIPK? Oil analysis shows poor filtration!

    Those with an aftermarket intake with a cone filter (e.g. FIPK, Steeda, etc.) may find this interesting. Last weekend I changed my oil (Amsoil 0W30) at 3000 miles and sent a sample off to Blackstone Labs for analysis. I just got back the results, and they are interesting to say the least...

    '03 & '04 Owners - How old are you?

    Most of the Terminator drivers I see - and there aren't many - seem to be about my age plus or minus a couple years. Let's see who makes up Ford's market for these cars! Nothing beats a lovely demographic study.

    Viet-nam vets to run ad against Kerry - Video

    Vietnam vets to run ad against Kerry - Video I just saw this - this has got to be the most brutal political ad I have ever seen during a presidential campaign. It's by a group (probably a 527, defnitely not directly affiliated with the Bush campaign) called "Swift-boat Veterans for Truth"...

    Republicans Plan Push For Elimination Of Irs

    REPUBLICANS PLAN PUSH FOR ELIMINATION OF IRS http://www.drudgereport.com/rnc.htm Interesting concept although I can not form an opinion without seeing a more in-depth proposal. I've always been a proponent of a flat income tax and I would definitely support that. Another good option to...

    My first dyno - '03 w/ FIPK

    Well, I just completed my first dyno run on the '03 with the FIPK. I attended the Central Virginia Mustang Club dyno day at Performance Autosport just west of Richmond. CMVC is a great bunch of folks, and Mark (the owner of Performance) was a fantastic host! He even provided hot dogs &...

    What's the best catback for me - Bassani or Magnaflow? I'll preface this with the obligatory "yes I searched" - this site, other sites, and have been reading the retrieved posts voraciously for about 5 days now. :read: And I still don't know what to do. I want a catback, and just a...

    '03 Maintenance Advice @ 10K miles

    Hi all, My bone stock (for now) '03 rolled over 10K miles a couple weeks ago, and even though Ford says I only need oil change and rotation (already done @ 9600 miles) I'm planning on getting some "refresh" work done when I get my car re-inspected this week. Driver profile - I get on the...
