Even if a Neon smokes a 99 GT, its still a neon right, regardless how fast it is

I would have to go for the '03 Cobra and get an '07 SE (if they make it....)
It would really annoy 2005 owners when a '03 Cobra smokes 'em every time

Wouldn't tick me off if an 03 Cobra is faster...
It still has a cheaper interior...would be at the time an older generation car with a bunch of parts shoe horned into a 25 year old chassis... and looks are subjective...but more people would love the look of the 05 over the 03.

Yes, when (and if) you catch up to him, you can yell, "Your interior is cheaply made." That will teach him. lol
Seriously though, I love the way the '05 Stangs look. But, the point of owning a Mustang for me is the power first, good looks second. So, i won't be running out to buy a new generation Stang until they either put the '03-'04 Cobra engine in one, or a motor with equal to that power and ease of modification. That is the biggest plus for the '03-'04 Cobra's, how easy it is to get more power out of one.
If you are hoping to modify an '05 GT to be able to run with an '03-'04 Cobra, you better hope Ford uses forged internals on the new 3 valve motor. Otherwise, the Cobra owner will only be a pulley and chip away from leaving you behind. Those Cobra motors can take over 900hp without breaking.
Here's hoping for a new SE by 2006.
