SS Camaro or 2001 Cobra?

Thanks. I could also mention that the LS1 F-bodys' suspensions are set-up WAY conservative from the factory. Get a performance caster/camber/alignment from a shop that knows what it's doing and toss the DeCarbon shocks for some Koni/Bilstein/etc and you'll be shocked. Look around for some performance swaybars and springs. They can often be found on the "classifieds" board for cheap...
konis + alignment + front sway + V710s = hello competitive setup for FS

And anyone that looks at 145 or 160 top speed as a reason to buy a car........probably shouldn't be getting one.....cause they would be dumb enough to do that on a public street................unless of course they do it on a track.

I'd say drive them both and see what you like. I did. I like all cars, I'm not into the American vs rice or Ford vs Chevy. I drove GT's but no Cobra's and to me that's just like driving a normal everyday car but it's faster than most . With the LS1's you just feel like you're in a bad *** race car. It's hard to explain until you drive one. Throw on some Koni's and some good tires and you'll never want to get out of thing. I love the t-tops as well.
The two thing's I do like better about the Cobra's are that snake emblem which is badass and the exhaust note. They sound better stock for stock but a cammed LS1 is unsurpassed.

camaro hands down...there is no feeling better than getting into you ls1 and driving it past all the hundreds of mustangs on the road. They are so damn common im so sick of them. Yeah their exhaust does sound good but slap a catback on a camaro and it sounds waaaay better. SS's will definitely grab more people's attention bc there arent many camaros on the out there nowadays. Plus a low mileage z is definentely in your 13k price range. Cobras are pretty expensive
