We'll I've been a member here forever and wanted a cobra forever and finally make it happen. This picture is horrible, but it was the only one I snapped on the drive home this morning. I'll try to post more after work, weather permitting.

Congrats! The car looks great!

Looks clean, any mods coming in the future?

Only thing I have planned is chrome letters in the Cobra cutout on the bumper. It has plenty of power for me as it sits now, but I'm sure that may change in the future. I'm loving it so far.

NICE!
Welcome to Terminator land

Nice congrats, don't forget the light-bar

Welcome to the Terminator Club!

Good looking snake, and a great color to boot.

The light-bar mentioned above is a MUST for convertible snakes.

Shoot me a PM and we can talk pricing.

Car looks clean, nice pickup!

Congrats that is one sharp looking SB vert. I agree on the light bar as well.

Congrats, welcome to the vert club, nothing better than a night time cruise on the highway with the top down this time of year. But skip the lightbar and put in either a 4pt or 6pt rollbar from MM. Looks awesome, stiffens the car and could actually save your life.

Nice! Join up on our local forum and bring it to some meets!

Welcome to the SVT family. I remember how great it felt with my first SVT.

 

[Sn95Snake]

Welcome! It looks you found a very clean example, you will enjoy it!

 

[JetmechF16]

Congrats, the verts are fun cruisers!

Congratulations on buying your first Cobra. The one you found looks really nice, with a nice set of base mods. I agree with adding a light bar to enhance the looks when the top is down. When are you going to install the stainless steel headers you have?

Thanks for all the compliments guys, a light bar was on my list also.

I'm not sure, from what I've read most headers don't do much for power, just sound. They were a throw in deal on the car so I'm not sure I'll even install them.

put on the headers....

You'll skip wood and go straight to creaming every time you start your car

In all seriousness though, while the headers aren't the same as slapping on smaller pulley to up the boost, in my 01 I did notice a substantial increase of power not under WOT/at WOT in the wrong gear. So for like accelerating without downshifting to pass, getting through an intersection, etc...


If you don't mind me asking, how much did you get it for (I'm leaning more and more towards getting a Terminator)

Would be really interested to know this as well if OP doesn't mind saying, or at least ballparking it. My guess would be 24k.

Guy was originally asking $29k and just dropped it to $25k. I bought it for $24.5k, which I thought was a good deal with all the other cars I had looked at with 3-6 owners and 30-50k miles asking in the same range. The car looked new and still smelled new inside too. He had owned it since 2004 and put 7k miles on in that time.

You got a good deal as well as a popular color.
