Holy shit, buy my GT fucker! $12,500 Shipped!

then ill get another Cobra or a Supra.

but 15-17k range you can prolly find a good deal on a Mach1 or 99-01 Cobra. GT's are in the 10-12k range in Cali, its prolly cheaper everywhere else.

oh btw, badass video 04 Cobra vs. Rebuilt Crapero

[Kyle]

[Kyle]

[Cajun JungleBoy]

It has 88k on it, shitty paint and body kit yada yada, strange rear end moan, rattles and squeaks (its no beamer), paint is decent, shifts good strangely for a t-3650.

I just got a fuckload of money in the bank right now (bonus+cobra payoff difference) so ill prolly fix the rear end soon.

[Cajun JungleBoy]

dont buy his GT, its a broke POS


Look for a nice 96-98 cobra. They can be had for 9-14k stock or heavily modded. Those lil suckers are sweet.

yeah it sure is one random sound and the whole thing is just basically a writeoff i guess.

The reason I said dont buy a GT is the very reason why he is selling his... I know its a step up from your V6 but you have to realize.... they are slow cars. They run low 14s stock MAYBE high 13s if you are at a good track with good conditions.

Then you are limited to the potential of bolt ons, you could probably get in the 12s if you do everything and have a great suspension (and a manual tranny or a ton of work to the auto) with a good suspension setup and gears.....

save up and buy a mach 1 they are a MUCH better car all around. Dont settle just because you want a v8... If you cant afford a mach 1 then thats fine. If I had near 17k to buy a car with I wouldnt limit myself to a 99-04GT by far

[Cajun JungleBoy]

i understand where your coming from... just its difficult to find a mach 1 here in baton rouge or surrounding areas... ive seen one for sale which was blue and black and... well looked like some things were wrong with it. by far, i want an 03/04 cobra... thats my love.... if none are available which i doubt there will be... unfortantely, im looking for mach 1's, bullits, and gt's.... and of course im going manual this way around.

[SpectorV]

well if you have the money to pick up an 03 cobra i would just not give up until you found one. Before you buy a mach 1 or a cobra make sure you are responsible enough to have one. Other than that just keep looking, you can find them for low 20s with good milage in good condition.

Which means make sure you don't run your oil dry...don't rag on it until you are ready for the power...and don't let your dad suggest where to get your car serviced/fixed.

I say buy a 99+ GT, or Supercharged Cobra. Mach 1's, and n/a Cobra's are not much faster IMO.(A little but not to much) You can buy a GT for pretty cheap, and their cheaper to mod, will make crazy power if you build the motor right, and will handle better if you have a comparable suspension to the 4valve cars because 2valve motors carry their weight lower in the chassis. Still n/a 4valve cars are good too, I'm just showing some love to the 2valve Mustangs.

BTW n/a 4valve mod motors have shitty lowend power. (not that a 2valve mod motor is a 5.0 or anything)

I would also recommend you go and test drive all the cars your considering, and use that to determine what you think would suit you best.

[Cajun JungleBoy]

i went and looked at a 03 gt today, and a 06 roush... well the roush with 3k miles on it was wanted for 39,9 lol, and the 03 gt was 14... which seemed a little high. the weather is a little yucky but ima try to get out there soon and go start my search.

[Kyle]

this thread is funny
