My friend took me for a ride in his slightly modded '04 cobra.

I dont think people understand what a fast car is until they have ridden in one. My mustangs were slow basic transportation compared to that thing. I coulden't breathe while that thing was accelerating. I want one....Bad. He only did a few mods to it and it raised the HP and torque substantially.

It was a life-altering experience.

I haven't been in anything above my buddies 89 5.0
and even that wasn't as quick as most newer mustangs.

Something tells me I'll be QUITE a bit shocked in the new 05 GT

Don't make me recite either of my Mach 1 experiences again! You WILL be in for a surprise.

Glad you enjoyed them.

"DAAAMN" would be the shortened and censored version of what I said when I drove it.

That's what I had. Modded it up, and it was pretty quick. I used to think so anyway.

If you get a chance, test drive a cobra. It will amaze you.

I was in my friends 03 Cobra, I can prove it's fast, I have the name of the Policeman who pulled him over and gave him a ticket. I still laugh when I think about it. I warned him.

We're like the little support group keeping him away from them.

He'll probably end up buying one the day before the 05's hit.

I did two TDs on '03 Cobras, and they are responsive. The hood alone is intimidating and give an overpowering feeling. But IMO, the Mach 1 has nothing to envy the Cobra and it is better all around and at bargain prices. A $10K difference is no chicken feed.

I'll be getting back to the states around December so I'm hoping "any" Mach 1's still left are priced a little lower since the 05's will be on the lots.

Don't count on it. There are plenty of Cobras but the Mach 1s are getting scarce. If you like to, you can send one of us the money and we'll take care of it until you get here.
