Car Dilema...Sell WS6&Buy 03 Cobra Well the time has come for me to decide upon some serious decision, for me anyways.
I have an immaculate 99 ws6 6 speed thats bone stock and never seen rain up to this day. I've always had an eye out for a super clean low mileage one and found one last year and went 700 miles to get it.
I now have a chance to sell her and I always like the 03 terminators for so many reason. Looks, the amazing motor and the rarety. Im honestly torn and I have NO clue what to do guys. I need all of your opinions.
All of you that have had both, or have driven both what do you say? I know im asking on a ls1 site but I know a lot of you will give me straight answer.
A few brief pics of my bad boy.....

Mod your T/A. With Pontiac disappearing, you will regret it later in life if you choose to sell now. Sure, the Cobra is a bad *** car, but the ws6 has a lot more bad *** potential in terms of looks and performance, imo.

I love the 03-04 Cobras...I say if you can find one with low miles and a good price (DO IT) But I have to agree your car is clean and if it's paid off, I would keep it.

I still owe money on the ws6 but the payments aren't huge. I got a lil more for it then what I paid so I made a big of cash, nothing large.
As far as the Cobra, its a zinc yellow 03 with 10K miles. 75 yr old owner (original) BONE stock for $24K.

I'd sell the WS6 and go for the cobra. Those cars only bolt ons and a kenne bell away from 600 whp. Although you really can't go wrong either way because your ws6 is a bad *** car too.

if you put boltons and a kennebell on a ws6 i bet it wouldnt be hard to get 600whp either...
if you get the cobra, make damn sure it hasnt been abused, seems like they are getting harder to find that arent abused.
me personally, i notice a ws6 before i do a terminator on the road.
your bird is soooo clean, i cant believe you are even considering getting rid of it. keep it, do tasteful mods and you will love it even more. pontiac is dead and the ws6 TA will only get rarer as time goes on.

The cobra seems like a true gem. As previously mentioned, the guy is 75 years old and bought her brand new from ford back in late 02. He has every single piece of paper work from svt that came with the car. Zero Mods, and no miles.
As for my ws6, yeah shes pretty clean. I was just about to order some small items for her(cobra bobs shifter gasket in the room, SLP **** about the be ordered, and next month corsa cat-back
)
For what its worth, I've always loved the look of the cobra, and always considered them the domestic supra in terms of the redicilous amount of power it can take and then some.
Here is the autotrader ad of the specific cobra......
