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.

Those cars are rated way higher than 13.9 .... I have heard of them running mid to high 12's stock...you sure it was an 03? was he stock?

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

A friend of mine has an 03 and he just has pullies and exhaust and runs 7.50's 1/8 mile. A lot faster than my car. (for now)

I've seen full bolt-on, ported/pulled COBRA's around 500-520rwhp...They got the name "TERMINATOR" for a reason and they're not rated at 13.9.

Yep, my buddy who has an 03 is an "ok" driver and pulled off a 12.36 with only an intake.

+1. Do not hold this cobra as the standard or you could be very disappointed next time you race one. Consider yourself lucky during your first encounter with a Termie.

13.9, thats retarted. Quit reading magazines and start doing research on the net, and regardless of what others say, your car should be even with a stock terminator.

did you think irunelevens was lying? Just face it...you dont' know much abotu stangs as you think you do. try being a little more open minded about the subjects you are ignorant on.


FWIW - I think he meant to type 12.9.

if i remember correctly 12.4X is the quickest, and 12.5ish to 12.8ish is common for pretty good drivers

Good Kill. He got lucky. Leave it at that. Cobras are a good nemesis for us LS1s. NEXT!!!

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)!!
