The supercharged Cobra returned in 2004, but production
was limited to just under 5000 units. The big news for the Snake was the addition of MystiChrome to the color palette. MystiChrome color-shifting paint changed from
topaz green to cobalt blue to royal purple, and finally to deep onyx black as
the viewing angle changed. Even the seats and steering wheel had leather color-shifting inserts. The MystiChrome package also included chrome wheels, and
was a $3650 option.
Only 1010 MystiChrome Cobras were produced--515 coupes and 495 convertibles. The Cobra
was also available in Competition Orange, Ebony, Redfire, Screaming
Yellow, Silver Metallic, Torch Red, and White. An easy way to tell a 2004
Cobra from a 2003 is that the 2004s' keyhole on the driver's door is all chrome,
where the 2003 model had black trim.
