Hello everyone, I bought a 2003 Cobra back in September and have been slowly checking the site out when I have the chance. With woorking full time and going back to school I haven't had much time to post or play with the car! :shrug: I'm slowly getting the itch to play with it a little more!

it's a Sonic Blue Coupe with 46,xxx miles on it. Not many things have been done to it and has been well taken care of. I have been wanting one of these cars for many years now and finally found one that was as close to stock as possible, with low milage. This car looks great next to (lil brother) my Sonic Blue SVT Focus. It has FR500 rims, BBK cold air induction kit on it, bassani exhaust, and a tri-ax short throw shifter. Plan to ditch the BBK and install a JLT short ram intake, and get rid of the tri-ax for a MGW shifter.

i'm no stranger to mustangs as I also own a 92 fox body convertible. At this point I'm torn on wether or not to sell it and use the money for this cobra, or keep both and make them both fun cars!

Thanks guys!

Oh and I forgot to mention I'm in the San Antonio, TX, and relatively new to this area. If there are any folks in the area I wouldn't mind meeting and going for a cruise sometime!

very cool......congrats

My opinion is to keep em if you can. The LX verts just don't have a big demand....you won't get a ton of dough unless its in showroom condition.

As you can tell from my sig, I was in the same boat as you. Only reason I sold my LX vert was cuase I needed $$ for a wedding.

Yes that will be the first thing, I want to lower this pig badly! As you can see my vert is lowered! :rolling:

I also want to learn about pulley schwaps too! Would like to learn as much as possible before I take the plunge! :kaboom:
