[QUOTE="IronTerp, post: 16818462, member: 12702"] I owned and raced an 03' Cobra for 7 years, and then went to an 07' GT500 which I currently own and have raced for the last 12 years. Modded both of them very similarly and have achieved comparable results. I love both cars. The GT500 is a superior car that carries the same "fun factor" as the Cobra IMO. I made the right decision for me in making the change back in 2010. The 07' has more interior room and mod for mod produces about 90 more RWHP than the 03'. Did love the IRS in the 03' and noticed a difference there. To me, the 4 genres of this 2003 to 2022 Cobra/GT500 run, (03-04' Cobra, 07-12' GT500, 13-14' GT500, 20'-22' GT500, Sorry about excluding the GT350!), has shown a steady and significant upgrade from genre to genre. As expected! The 03-04' started it all off and was revolutionary with it's roots supercharger and ease of modification. The 07-12 run built on that with more cubes in motor and supercharger and roomier cockpit. The 13-14's was a huge upgrade with the TVS and just overall technology. And then the monster: the 20-22's. True supercar. It just comes down to money. Isn't that always the case? lol The Cobras have become "collectors" and I actually bought another one 2 years ago. A bone stock 03' DSG vert. I often drive the 07' and 03' on the same day so have a good reference of comparison. For the current market of the 03-04', the 35k 07-09' GT500's is a much better value IMO. This all being said, if I had 55k that I was willing to part with, (and I actually did 4 years ago but opted out for my first auto trans performance car and went with the Hellcat instead.

It's a shame the 20-22's are priced where they are right now. Knocks a lot of folks out of that market right now, (just how Ford intended...lol). Sorry for the long winded response. Just my take on it. I would upgrade to the 07-09'. [/QUOTE]
