You will enjoy the power and robust engine that the cobra has to offer. I speak from experience because I used to own a yellow '03 cobra and sold it to get my Ducati 749s superbike and my Mach. The only thing I didn't like about the Cobra was the IRS (sucked for drag racing). If the solid axle would have been optional the car would have been all one could ask for.

Thanks for all the replies guys. Only 200 more miles before my first oil change :HOPPY:

And sorry Izzy, yeah, my PM box got out of control. I cleaned it up a bit.

First congrats on getting the excellent looking snake.

You are going to put the HIDs on aren't you? It was your pics of them on the Mach that got me interested in them in the first place. Liked them ever since (and have ordered the matching fogs).

Yep, that's on the list as well... I just have to stop thinking about all the mods I want to do, otherwise I'm going to be living in my Cobra. here's the link: http://www.procarparts.com/store-det...99MT%2D7933HLX

Never had a fogging problem w/ them, and they really do look awesome compared to the stockers. I never liked the amber, it never fit w/ the rest of the car.

Did you put in any down payment to get the Cobra? How much more you paying for your monthly?

That's what I thought Babbat. I thought I read Ford made a mid-year change during 03 production. The "new" heads have a blue dot on them and the "old" ones don't. They reworked the coolant flow in the new head. Of course all the 04's have the revised head then. There is DOHC modular head article in 5.0 magazine this month that mentions this.

I traded in Nikki and left $6k down. I got raped on the trade in (don't even ask), so my payments about $500.

That's what I thought too. If the damned search option on SVTP would work, I could find out. Actually, I might just ask Vaccaro or one of the other guys if they know.

I have the "blue" heads and I'm doing the cooling mod because the ford "fix" wasn't much!
Mar, when you do this, make sure you take pics. We need to drop the tranny supposedly, and it looks like that might be more fun than installing my headers

So, Mach1Marauder, exactly what kind of mod is this that fixes the cooling issues?

Sorry Babbat, I don't mean to hijack your thread, I'm just curious...

Re: Goodbye Nikki, Hello Erica

Hey all, LTNS. I've been away for awhile and just started looking @ my forums again. I saw what happened with the HID GP and I was disappointed to find out the events following my departure. I lost one of the headlights during my accident, and had to buy a new set from another dealer since Meccatune is MIA. I also got a set for my foglights and installed them yesterday. When I get home tonight, I'll try and post some pics. Suffice to say, I really missed my HIDs Anyways, it's good to see some of the old faces again

As promised. Sorry for the pics, didn't have much time to take them. She's treated like the princess she is. A kick your ***, take no prisoners one, but a princess nevertheless
