I honestly don't think they're that bad a car. I'd drive one if the opportunity presented itself, but that's not to say I'd go out and buy one.

01's also had the bad intake deal....... Cobra owners were getting beat at the track by GTs back when they first came out. Ford did a recallish deal and fixed the problem. Coletti killed the '02 for USA because of the '01 hiccup. I read in an article that he went on the test run in the '02, told them to hit the store, went in and bought some dog food and told the driver to "feed this dawg"

Ive always wondered but when you buy an 03-04 cobra do you receive like an email, text, or friend request from heater and the boys to be friends? Seems like thats how it is on here.

Maybe my memory is going bad, but I thought it was the 99 Cobra that had the "tune" issue and that was why the only Cobra for 2000 was the Cobra R.

I dont know why ford added a blower to their cobras, when they couldve just added mach 1 gears instead. Then they couldve had 10 second cobras straight out the factory.
