I am kinda curious, how much hp does a 2004 cobra have? How fast can it get from 0-60? Just a little curious.

 

Well... the Timeline says 390 hp for the 2004 Cobra.
I haven't a clue about the 0 - 60 times though.

 

12.5@111 Stock
4.3 0-60

 

The 03-04 SVT Cobras are listed at 390hp but it is a very conservative rating most people including myself have found well over 400hp in stock trim. My 03' made over 370hp at the wheels alone while it was stock. 0-60 times from various magazines like Road & Track and Motor Trend are under 5 seconds in the 4.5-4.8 range 1/4 times have been listed as low as 12.4 and as high as 13.12. A safe bet is in the 12.7 range.

 

two words: rocket ship.

 

If you've never driven a RWD car before, I wouldn't start with a cobra.

You should get used to fishtailing in a GT before you try it in a cobra.

 

Yo dog, don't you mean Driftin'!!

 

Im getting a GT, cobras are to expensive for me. I was just curious becuase I know the 04 GT has like 265 horses and the new Gt's have 300 horses. So I was wondering if the old cobras were Gt 500's. 390 horse power is still a lot since the car weights so much less then the new ones.

 

actually a decent cobra (03-04) cost about the price of a base price S197 GT. maybe not the 1,00 mile ones but still. Good luck in getting a 'stang, you'll love it

 

Buying an 03-04 Cobra is not as easy as some may think. First off most low mile Terminators are selling in the high 20s and some even hitting the 30k mark. I have seen 05 GTs selling for low 20 and even in the high teens with reasonibly low miles. Two, and very important is that many 03-04 cobras selling on the used market are beat dogs its hard to find any used SVT that isnt beat and the Terminators are no exception.

 

yeah....most of them on ebay are like "600 RWHP!!!!".....chances are...that car has been hot rodded a few times

 

Yea that sucks. what are the production #'s for them?

If you scroll down a bit, you'll see the production numbers

 

There are deals to be had on Terminators if you know where to look. I bought my 04 mystichrome kenne bell cobra with 24K miles for 25500.

 

Whered you find that and how long ago? Thats a smokin deal, most mystichromes like that i see are going for around 30k.

I usually keep a pretty close eye on there, surprised i missed that one.

Found it. Thats a b*tchin car though, you stole that thing.

 

I bought mine back when the 05' Stang were first hitting market in late 04' for $25,000 with 4k miles. at the time 03-04' Cobras and MAch1s were selling really cheap ( the same place i bought my car also had a 03' Mach 1 with 1500miles for only $19,000) but after the GT500 came out with 20k markups the value of my car went sky high! I barly have 10k on it now and have been offered $30,000 all summer.

 

Ya the terminators havent really dropped for the last couple years. Nice if you have one... sucks if you want one...

 

I didn't plan on buying a car, but when I saw that deal I had too. I take solace in the fact that I own one of the last REAL SVT cobras, before Ford had shelby slap his name on a car that SVT built.
