nO 10th Aniv. I had two Blk 03's to choose from. They will be adding the chrome rims before I pick the car up. I wish they were polished like on the 01's. I like the polished look over chrome.

Just a reminder for anyone out there test driving new Cobras with mileage in the single digits...
When I first test drove my car (8 miles on the odometer), it made NO BOOST. Only after 10 minutes of driving did the boost suddenly begin working. I thought the car had problems and almost didn't buy it...until someone gave me this:
SPECIAL SERVICE MESSAGES
16459 2003 MUSTANG COBRA SUPERCHARGED
LACK OF POWER AND NO BOOST, LOW MILES
SOME 2003 COBRA VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE 4.6L SUPERCHARGED ENGINE MAY EXHIBIT A LACK OF POWER AND NO BOOST WHEN THE VEHICLE IS INITIALLY DELIVERED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE VEHICLES AFFECTED WILL HAVE VERY LOW MILES AND THE CONCERN WILL TYPICALLY BE NOTICED DURING THE PRE-DELIVERY INSPECTION. IF THE VEHICLE HAS NO BOOST AND LACK OF POWER, CLEAR THE KEEP ALIVE MEMORY AND RETEST. THE ALTERNATIVE CALIBRATION IS USED DURING THE ASSEMBLY PROCESS TO DISABLE BOOST AND PREVENT PLUG FOULING. BY CLEARING THE KEEP ALIVE MEMORY OR DRIVING THE VEHICLE FOR AT LEAST FIVE CONTINUOUS MILES, THE VEHICLE WILL REVERT BACK TO THE BASE CALIBRATION AND BOOST WILL BE ENABLED.
