[QUOTE="HEMI LOL, post: 9602204, member: 100034"] im the same way, i call it underdog syndrome. :rockon: i wanted to build something different. it seemed like every cobra was, FR500's or 18in reps, 2.76 pulley, tune, exhaust 460whp. rinse wash repeat just about. while thats impressive in its own right its kinda boring imho. i want to go to a meet and have something different, not just a differnent color of everyone elses ride. the s197 leaves alot on the table for mods imho. from styling to bpu's there are a lot of possibilites. some guys bolt on the kitchen sink and go 13.5's, some use some well thought out mods and go 12.70's. i like the challenge of setting up a car correctly, not just the same ole bolts. theres little to no challenge in a terminator to me. anyone can make one wicked, so therefore wicked cobra tend to be unimpressive. thats a bolt statement but really, im i that wrong. unless a cobra is up over 650whp do i find myself say, damn thats a beast. now when you see a 460whp s197 you go, shoot thats one helluva car! the s197 is a little lighter, much better to drive and i think pulls of the 67-68 GT look really well. i say go for it, build a s197 and stand out from teh crowd.
