Talking Got rid of the Lightning. Hello 03 Cobra!

Well, after 7 hours of fighting tooth and nail with the dealership Friday I am driving my new 03' Sonic Blue Cobra. Paid invoice for it and they gave me 24k for the trade in....

I do miss the L already though

Nice cars, tough to haul lumber or other crap in, but nice cars. Didn't take long to put mods on it thats for sure

Good googly moogly Griffin... Did you drive that BEAST out of the dealer and straight into Razors Edge for mods?

It wouldn't be Miami would it?

Now all Ford has to do is see which dealership sold an 03 sonic blue Cobra.

Welcome to Mustang World Griff.....................Just wanted to give you the official online welcome!

You told me yesterday that you wanted to "break it in", and that you haven't drove it hard yet...............what the hell did you do, leave the Cobra at REM while you removed the hood??

You better have enough miles on your car this week, cause next week we're taking each other for a ride...............and then we're swapping..............just around the block............say from I-95 to I-75 on 595, getting off on each exit??

I put the filter on yesterday. LEt me tell you what a bitch that was to get it to fit.

I won't be putting on the other stuff until I get the car broken in. I will say this though~ I didn't realize how fast my Lightning was until I goosed the Cobra.

Feels like it is a good second slower For now, that is

JC,

IT IS ON BIATCH!!!

I'll be at Tower's this Friday...........Let's TRY and get there as early as possible....................never later than 6pm! The parking spot I got the last time was deplorable, atrocious, and downright depressing!!!

I had a riced out blue V6 Mustang with 16" aftermarket rims and a Commando body kit.............a red V6 Mustang, WANNABE Mach 1 (I WANTED TO POLITELY ASK HIM TO LEAVE!!!), a Riced out Hyundai, and a Civic with Lamborghini doors. I had the "Please kill me now look all night".

There's tons of Cobras, Steeda-tuned GT's, and sometimes some Saleens out there every week, so if we get there early enough, we can land a few spots with them.

BTW...............I know you'll kick my a$$ rather easily, so the only reason I'd run you is just to see how close I can keep up with a Cobra to get an idea of what I can run up against...............that, and I've never been in an '03 Cobra, so you have to give me a ride in your beast too! :-)

talk to u later,
jc
