Anyone want to sell there really *****y 03 cobra. I'll take it off their hands for a loss of a few thousand dollars. I'll pay $30K to anyone who wants to get rid of that hunk of metal.

Congrats on a new ride for your stable. Won't take much to get it really moving.
Saw a 03 Sonic Blue Cobra hardtop racing at Maple Grove this past weekend.
My local dealer had just gotten in a Mineral Grey Hardtop one before I left for Maple Grove last week. Got to check it, Inside and Out, started it up, but didn't get to test drive it.
I'm jealous, a L and a Cobra.
I was contemplating selling the Lexus for a 03 Cobra, but I like my Lexus also. I'll wait a year or two and maybe get one and keep the Lexus.
Keep us posted on the progress..

Have you guys seem all the 03 Cobra's on Ebaymotors? They're starting bidding at 42K with the "buy now" option at 48K.
Ooooooo whata deal!
Congrats on the ride! Would be willing to divulge what a real Cobra deal is worth?

The dyno run was done with all accesories and stock COBRA exhaust system installed. It made 441H.P at the flywheel. I was told with the right aftermarket exhaust system, chip, and air induction kit it will make close to 500H.P at the flywheel. Thise COBRA's are going to be a handful at the least.

HI!... BOBSMITH : Sorry about my last post. I thought your were some CHEVY guy coming on here trying to flame me and the 03 MUSTANG. We all try to get together here on ONLINE.
My buddies name is KEN, in his early 40's. He goes down to the dyno rooms frequently at the PLANT off SEMINOLE. I won't mention his last name here. Do you actually work in the dyno rooms? If so, any chance on getting a tour? KEN brought me through the engine plant a few weeks ago when they were shut down because of a equipment failure. It was very interesting. Let me know. If you can, mabey we can get a group tour through there.

BaBolt, your dyno sheet really lit the fuse on the LS1 board.
And you all thought our guys didn't get along sometimes.
Look under the Fords, foreigns... Bone stock Cobra dyno...
Check out the last 3-4 bages. It is hilarious.
