Would you buy a used '03/'04 Cobra or a post 20XX Mustang Cobra(whatever comes down the pipeline after the GT500)?

 

Give me some specs on the 20XX Cobra and I'll think about it. Until then, who knows??

I will say that given equal HP/TQ, I'd take the 20XX Cobra due to the styling, handling improvements on the S197 Chassis.

 

Well my reasoning for wondering about a future cobra, was cuz I'm warry about used high performance cars(parents always told me, "you're just inheriting someone elses problem", which is not always the case of course).

anyway, the future cobra, say somewhere between 2010-2012, would probably have more than 450 horses. Probably wouldn't look that much different from a S197 still. I can't see them changing the body style that rapidly yet. It will probably be more arodynamic than the '05-'07s.

 

If youre lookin that far down the road then a terminator will be cheap(er) by then. If it comes to 2010 or 2012 and youre in the market i'd say buy a garage queen low mileage terminator , drop a few grand on it in mods, pocket the other 15 or 20 grand and watch the new cobras disappear in your rearview...
