The car rocks

I think it rocks. I have not done anything to the motor except put a new performance intake in it (by choice). Other than that and having oil changed on time and tune ups done I haven't had to do anything to the motor. Like i said the car rocks

Cobra #1 car I've owned

I bought this car about 6 months ago and it runs awesome. It was totally stock and nothing done to it. I bought it at 116k miles. I've since put 10k miles and have put an xpipe, 100shot nitrous, intake, and plug wires. I can say it runs much better and haven't seen any problems with over 380hp 450ftlbs torque on the 116k car. It handles great too. I must say I need some 4.10 gears and wil take almost half a second off my 1/4 et's. In one word, great car.

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST CARS I HAVE OWNED (15 TOTAL ) THE PERFORMANCE IS NICE, THE INSIDE IS PERFECT, THE ONLY DRAW BACK IS THE TRANNY.FORD SHOULD HAVE BUILT A BETTER TRANNY, MINE JUST BROKE AFTER ONLY 44K MILES ON HER (1997 COBRA)I FIND THIS UNEXCEPTABLE ! THE REST OF THE CAR IS GREAT. SURELY NOT A FAMILY CAR , THAT IS WHY I AM SELLING HER.

Excellent Sports Car. Fun Fun Fun! Only thing you have to do is put 4:10 rear gears in this car. Makes it a totally different car.This car is worth every penny more than the GT Mustang. And it holds good resale value
