Just want to say that this forum is GREAT!!! I remember back in Mayish 02 hearing about the 03 Cobra coming out, so I went down to the SVT dealer that is about 5 miles away :) The price range wasn't exact, but it was close to what they were/are selling for. A little too much for me.. So I started looking at the imports, and what is one of the toughest imports, the Supra. I still like it a little, I love that targa it has What I want is performance!!! The thing that scared me about the snake was all the rumors about how it handled... I dont get to crazy on winding roads that often but when I go down to Tenn and cruise through the smokeys I like to let 'er rip... The more I read the more it looks like I was hearing a lot of domestic bashing... I always have been about American Muscle... I curently own a lil mirage, no power but it has got the job done, I also own a 69 coronet with 440 sitting under the hood... Plus before I came over here, on A LOT of the foreign car forums, I saw stuff I couldn't believe. The threads that started would you go to war if drafted type stuff.. I cant believe all the negativity I would see... All the " I would use this excuse or go here etc etc" Hope that I dont see any of that here... Not like we love to be 6K miles away from home in the middle of a hot S**T hole desert. :cuss: Anyways, so far I have seen nothing but good stuff.... Now I hope I can get a Cobra for about 32-33K range when I get home.

Nate!

Welcome, and thank you for serving our country and protecting our freedom.

I was pleasantly surprised by the '03's handling. Mine tracks where you put it, doesn't have a lot of roll in the turns, and brakes pretty well. If you wanna autocross or roadrace, there are plenty of handling/braking upgrade options available. It goes without saying that the power & torque is great!

Good luck, and hopefully when you get back you can hook yourself up with an 03 or 04.

Best regards,
Bill

Rick,

I am sure I will be able to work a deal, I live in Glen Burnie and I have been searching the web and see about 15-20 in my local area. Once I get one, I am sure I will be taking a ride up to see you!!! :rolling: I already would want to rip the exhaust out and stiffin up the rear I think... Just depends how much I have to put down on the car... The more and more I read, I am getting hooked by the second... I ask myself why pay 25-35K(Supra) for a car with 60K+ miles when I can spend a little more and have under 50 miles on the car... Getting excited... Hope to be home soon!!! Hopefully within 30 days...



Nate
