Whats the fastest time anyone has seen out of a stock 03, 04 cobra? These cars are rated for 13.9 1/4 with a professional driver. The way everyone talks about them i figured they would be better. I had my first run in with one about 2 weeks ago from a stop light and i had him by about a car and a half when i hit 4th, anyone else beat a "Terminator"? I wasn't very impressed with a car that cost twice as much as mine.

I agree. An 03-04 cobra runs way faster than 13.9.That would make it slower than an ls1 f-body and its faster stock for stock. It is a 12 second car right off the showroom. Mid-high 12's

most of the magazines got them to run 12.9's while some have gone mid 12's stock.......full bolt-on they can be straight up nasty and put close to 500rwhp with the stock blower....they are especially quick from a roll, dont get too cocky you may have just ran into a bad driver

FWIW - I think he meant to type 12.9.

Last time I saw a bone stock 03/04 Cobra was probably about 3 years ago. He was running 13.3-13.5 (at least 10 passes) at Milan in Michigan.
I would say he was a decent driver based on his runs (60ft. times and banged through the gears pretty good).
I didn't realize there were any bone stock Cobras around anymore (just like a bone stock f-body)!!
