 Their Clutches are way too stiff and have a shitty feel, their gas mileage is pretty crappy, and they have a serious traction problem, but besides that their pretty fucking amazing.
Check out my new car.
Will have more picture tomorrow. I took these at the guys house and had to drive 300 or so miles home, its been a long day.

lol you get used to the clutch, then every other car feels shitty cause its so light and doesnt have enough "Feel" to it. I for one love heavier clutches, i dont like cars that have a "Desensitized" feel to them by either super light clutches, brakes, steering, etc.
yeah mileage does suck, but oh well, you dont spend 25k on a car with a supercharged V8 and expect to have the mileage of a honduh.
traction does suck, but its still pretty grippey through first and second, IRS does help as well as a good set of tires (i had nitto n/t's out back on mine, and it stuck in all conditions but wet and cold dry pavement).
btw sonic blue owns. if i ever get another cobra, im gonna try to get a Sonic Blue.

 Yeah I was joking when I was complaining. My cars clutch is 3 time better than the other Cobra's I drove, I think it has a SPEC clutch, thats one reason I chose it. It also has a K&N CAI, Magnaflow exhaust, MGWshort throw shifter, and a 2.93" pulley

BTW the blower whine is very addictive, and I like watching the boost gage.

Thanks.
Its really is an amazing car. You can be in overdrive at 60 or so mph and hit the gas and out accelerate most other cars on the road, there is tons of power everywhere.

dam man, those rims are a little pricey. but they will look very sick on that car. if you got the money, get them. otherwise wait a lil while cuz i know puttin out over a grand for rims can be a lil draining. lol. dont know much about suspension, so dont wanna give a false opinion.

You can get 315's on the back but theres a bolt that sticks out....it needs to be notched or filed down..something like that

Right. You either have to file down the IRS bolt, put in a spacer, or run nitto 315s. Those are the 3 options.

I was thinking of using all 3 options. BTW how the hell is this car so quit. Its got a Magnaflow exhaust and I swear the exhaust note is more than twice as quit as my old Roushes. The car is very refine(for a new edge mustang) until you stab the throttle, I especially love the steering feel when compare to my old car.
