Gone to the dark side (pics added)

Well, I sold my Formula and my DD blew up so I had the opportunity to get a new ride. I found an 03' Cobra with 30,000 miles on it for 23K in mint condition. Never modded, and obviously a weekend driver. I've always admired the Terminators and after 2 F-bods I figured I'd give one a try.

I have to say never having ridden in one it's a blast to drive. I still have a soft spot for Fbodys though.

Sorry, I'll get some better pics when I get a chance. I just ran outside and snapped a couple. It's black with the two tone grey interior.

Here's the Formula...

Get some springs for it, then get an exaust, and some pullies & intake. You can get to 450 on a non-ported & pullied eaton.

H&R's for sure. Although if you plan on Drag Racing it or DD driving it much leave the isolaters in, that way your car wont bounce off the pavement as much.
