Enjoy hearing peoples opinions on the car... Good or Bad let me know what you think.. 96 Cobra Convertible.. It has about 64,000 on it now.. Could use a paint job..

Since I bought the car 2 months ago::

New Exide Battery
New Hawk Front pads
Got the Dilled & Slotted rotors that were on the car cut
Cobra Front eblem
Cobra Stainless Rear bumper inserts
Mac offroad H pipe to go to the Mac Catback replacing the Pypes o/r x pipe
Painted the rotors, calipers, and the gas tank cover
Valvoline 5w30 oil change
Full interior detail
Polished the Tail pipes
Got a set of Ruff Racing wheels (waiting on new tires before I can install them)

Another member on a different site photoshopped the car for me..

Not many people are crazy about the rims.. But I like them.. Its good being different, everybody has Cobra or Saleen or FR500 rims..


Here is an exhaust video:

IMO i think those black 03 cobra wheels are better.

Those are v6 seats lol. Sick car though and nice find! The photoshopped pic made the rims look 100 times better.

Looks good. The seats look out of place, but other then that lower it and it'll look unique with those rims.

It will look awesome lowered. I just dropped mine and it made a world of difference. Not to mention it handles 1000% better as well.

Looks good man and don't worry about the wheels you don't have to have the same set as every other Cobra owner.

Overall a nice looking car. You can correct some of the issues as you get funds. Lowering it a bit will give it a much more aggressive look. Best of luck with it. The mileage isn't bad, either. :)

The wheels are not too bad. I would definately go buy some Mothers polish, and a power ball/cone to give those wheels some much needed TLC. Other than that definately invest in a good suspension setup.


My suggestion would be H&R Sports springs (no isolators front or rear), Tokico D-Specs, and Maximum Motorsports caster camber plates. After that... Look into a cloth convertible top, and a Classic Design Concepts lightbar.


Over all I think that you have yourself a winner. The mileage for your Cobra is pretty good, and the exhaust setup you have chosen sounds good. Congrats on your new ride!!!:beer:

Edit: Search around on the site for some pictures of Saleen wings, or just going wingless....
