It's been a long time coming, but I finally got to drive home my very own 03 Cobra last night.. It's a black convertible with graphite interior.. Man this thing kicks my 01's ass hands down. That blower whine is incredible, much better than hearing a the ping..

By the way, I got it for a little over $1000 under MSRP... I feel like I got a heck of a deal, for it being a SoCal dealer..

I can't get this smile off my face!!! :D :D :D

No major mods planned, just an exhaust and CAI. I want to try and keep my warrenty for a while, after all the problems I had with my 01..

I still have the 01 for a few more weeks, until the buyback is completed.. Maybe I can get down to the beach and get some good picture of them together next week..

Make sure and take pictures of both of them while you can.
I've got duel shots of my old 97 triple black 'vert Cobra next to a '00 Saleen 'vert I had, and then pictures of the Saleen next to my '03 Cobra.
It might sound silly now, but it's nice to go back and look at your old cars. Very nostalgic.
And welcome to the club :beer:

Congrats on your ride. I think that I uttered those same words 4 months ago:) Good luck holding out.

Congrats! :beer: I hope your cheeks don't cramp for all the grinning!

I told my wife that I wasn't going to do any warranty busting mods for a year or two. She was drinking coffee at the time and almost blew coffee out her nose she started laughing so hard. She made me an interesting bet that I wouldn't make it to six months without blowing the warranty all to hell.

She'll probably win.

Obviously, you are not aware of the serious peer pressure here!

"c'mon, it just a pulley & chip"

"It's no big deal"

"Everybody's doing it"

etc,
