Which one of these 2 would you buy? Either one of them would end up with a turbo or procharger on it making 600+ Keep in mind that there is a 600lb weight difference between the 2!!:beer:

i'm guessing you have a daily driver so i would do the cobra, but from the video i've seen with the 5.0 in it, it sounds like shit..... with whatever exhaust they had on it.

Cobra most definitely since you already have a Mustang. Plus I like when cars like that have a modern powertrain.

Im 6ft and a buddy has one from Superformance and I fit fine. But granted you cant lay back like a normal mustang, but im not going to take it on road trips. More piss off alot of people when a 3000lb Cobra with 400+hp blows by them with the top down!! LOL

Didnt that cobra sell at Barrett-Jackson? I have seen that car somewhere.

Dont think so, its the first one that BackDraft did and its more of a show car that travels around to different show.

Im 6'5'' could even get my feet to the pedals just knees in the dash for me lol. What sucked the most is the fact that he said i could drive it...

Not a kit car either, almost all orginal and he was just about done restoring it.

Did get to go for a ride in his built 500hp 84 svo though :)

Not looking to drop 200,000.

Try probably about 12-15 grand, Cobra is around 50-55 GT/CS 35-40

Well that extra 5in does make a difference lol there is another guy here that has 2 real ones right along with a F1 McClaren!!

Those SVO are something else, a friend has one with a custom build engine and turbo system that runs 8s and the outside looks like shit! HAHA

For what its worth you can find ford gt's in the $90-120k range.

His svo was actually in great shape, he was running high 10's in it.

Its always the old and busted looking fox's or gt's that run 8s and 9s it seems lol.
