I've always wanted one of these but never could justify it as I always needed a truck. Sold the f250 4x4 and bought this.

Well ill post pics when I can add attachments. Sigh

Sorry. Had family drop by.

It's a 2003 Ford Cobra aka "Terminator"

Black on black. Convertible. Car is all original, 62,000 miles

6spd standard. 390 hp/390 ft pounds torque

She is a beast. With a good driver car will run middle 12's in the 1/4 mile.

18 mpg in town
22-23 on highway.

List of mods coming next month.

Sweet Mustang, bro. The big arms/little legs of the car world. Good for getting middle aged women, I suppose.

I've own two of these and they are absolute beast. You will love this car I promise. I hope your wallet can handle it though, once the mod bug bites its hard to stop scratching.

Any forums you hang out on? I'm reading lately is webstangs.

Mod bug hit me with my lightning. Upper and lower pulleys. Cai, full exhaust (minus long tubes) custom tunes. She was a tough one!

Looking to get started on this one.

It's got new rubber in it but tires just won't stick. Cold doesn't help much either.

Ford advertised the hp at 390 but that is under rated. The dyno numbers show about 420-430 stock.

Gonna upgrade exhaust, change pulleys out and get a custom tune. Goal is to turn her up to about 525 to the tires on pump gas and 580-600 on race fuel.

Haha. It was a one owner. Older gentleman from Cali moved to Oklahoma to retire. Didn't need a fast car anymore I guess.

It's very hard to find one with this low of miles. I did find a 2004 termi that had 22,xxx miles but car was listed for 32k

I am impressed though. No air leaks around the top and car is in perfect shape considering its almost 10 years old.

Gonna call SVT and get her birth certificate and build number.
