I couldn't agree more. I really miss my 4L60E in the Camaro.

Chaman, Your retarded dude. You should actually do some work to your TA, and not on photo shop so you can appreciate it. To the OP if your happy with your choice, then good for you. It just seems like you won't really ever be satisfied with your choices. I honestly think that if you upgrade the **** out of that Cobra, then you'll be a lot happier than just doing some small amount of work on your TA. Just don't leave it stock, and don't do just minor upgrades. You don't want to get stompt by a F-body, because then you will regret trading. Don't get me wrong though, They do look good. Quite a few Cobras have turned my head, and i KNOW that the potential is there.

yeah, because the ONLY reason why people buy cars is to be faster than the next guy.

Modding isn't supposed to be about building the fastest car in the world. If it was, then every other car would suck just as soon as someone beat it. Mod it to your liking, and don't worry about how quick the next guy is. Trust me, I don't care how fast you THINK your car is, eventually someone will beat you. Will you then wish you had their car? What if you get beat by a Cobra?

Wow this thread got retarded fast...

Cobra's are cool no doubt, but when it comes down to it a LS1 with that same blower walks the cobra every time, period.

And OP, quit being an *******. Why dont YOU stop posting if you're going to be a dick. If you dont like all the Ford haters why dont you go to a ***** mustang site so you can listen to them whine about how they cant beat a ls1 car, or hell even a lt1 car.

Oh and my girlfriend thinks you car is "cute." Congrats

Too bad Illinois is filled with Mustangs, otherwise maybe Cobras wouldn't be so boring.

Really, my buddy has a '03 Mineral Grey Cobra, and every time we cruise in it there's 00-04 GTs, 05+ GTs, and older Cobras all over. My friend is even getting sick of it just because of the common-ness around here. To any non-car person, a Cobra is just another mustang.

And I REALLY don't like the looks of most Mustangs.. How could you trade such a sexy car for that "thing?"

There are lots of ford sites you can visit, no need to stay here.

If I see any white cobras running around northern illinois, I'll b sure to lay the bitch slap down.. even harder once my nitrous is dialed in.

Oh, and (small) Unit, I don't think there's any doubt the LSx platform is a lot better than the modular platform.

I'm not saying it isn't a nice car.... but I would have NEVER traded a WS6 for it.

About the only car I would have made such a trade for would be for a C5, C6 or Zo6.

Now if the OP had posted he had traded for any of those... I doubt there would have been such outcry over trading the WS6 in.

I think for a lot of us it boils down to..... Mustangs<Trans Ams/Camaros<Corvettes

With that said.... as long as he is happy.....it is his car... regaurdless of whatever we may say or think.
