Please,
Tell me why I should not do this. I have always wanted a terminator, and I'm seriously considering selling the Camaro for one.

Current mod list on Camaro:

MS3 +valvetrain
ls6 intake
full exhaust
TT2's
400 RWHP

-hugger orange


Help !

I regret selling my t/a and now a month later i bought another one, you just see them driving down the road, and just wish you had it again. Mine was a build for a year procharged geared headers, and when i sold it i like lost apart of me lol. Id keep it but thats just me.

Ive had both cars. my camaro was H/C full bolt on, the run of the mill H/C ls1. It was a fun and fast car. You will more than likely get a biased opinion on this site but the cobra is the better car. My cobra was Port/pulley, put out 513/508 RWHP. It was a more solidly built car, was easier to make big power with and just as reliable as the ls1. The only real nag i had about the 03 was how much it weighed(3700lb) and the shifter location sucks. It was a hard car to drive well IMO. The car will cost about twice what a good F-body will and the saying holds true, you get what you pay for. At the track my camaro was more built for it and more efficient because it was a stalled auto. The cobra had 100 RWHP on the camaro and they ran about the same times with the cobra usually traping a little more, camaro with a better E/T. Had the cobra been a stalled auto it would have been a beast. Just go drive a terminator and it should sell itself if the cash isnt a issue.

How many miles are on your camaro? How many on the cobra?

Is there an option of keeping both?

drive the cobra. odds are that one of the cars will feel more natural to you. that is the one you want. my wife had a 98 formula. i loved the power it had over my 95 mustang but the driving feel was mustang all the way for me. my 67 camaro felt like a better driving feel also.

I miss my 03 Cobra. I would own another for sure. With a pulley, exhaust, and a tune I made around 460. You have a super nice Z tho!

Thanks !

The real issues here are:

1) I already have a decently built Ls1 car with a good amount invested.

2) I haven't located a Cobra, It's just on my mind

3)The Cobra is vastly more expensive,


Damn.

I've had both cars. The Terminator is a dyno queen and a LS1 f body performs better at the track and is cheaper to mod.

Yeah...um I dono about that one.

Fbody are cheaper to mod though.

But since you had both cars, can you post times and dyno numbers for both of these cars?

Im in the same boat I have owned 3 sn95's and loved driving them. Recently I picked up a 99 ss and have add a ton of stuff to. I enjoy the camaro and the power but I loved driving my mustang. So in the next year or so I hope to be buying a 03/04 cobra. But I'm going to keep the camaro to

Don't be an idiot.. keep the Z and add nitrous you damn sell out!!

iTrader: (9)

LMAO

Ya, good point.

It's just so cheap an easy to mod the Z, not to mention the sound of my magic stick on cool summer mornings while driving to work gives me goosebumps.

i don't think you could go wrong either way. like someone else said, drive both and see which one feels more natural.

^^^^I'm with this guy, drive a termi and see how you like it. I remember having a car in my head as my dream car and driving it and didn't like it at all.
