    Michael,

    I'd personally wait for the '06 Cobra. The '03 Cobras has cylinder head
    issues apparently (silent recall). I don't really like buying cars new for
    that specific reason. I never know if something's wrong. I'm actually
    looking around for a 98 Cobra. I'm about to sell my 98 GT after I fix a few
    problems with it (old age).

    Just figured out that these are the 10th Anniversary special editions.

    Mike,
    Just my .02 worth.. if you're looking for a Cobra in this body style, go for
    one with the 5.0 - 94-95

    Tougher engine for serious mods.

    A 1998 has old age problems? Sheesh. I'm just starting to fix old age
    problems on an '87.

    Mike, congrats. Many here are jealous, even if they don't admit it. ;-)

    I'd love an '03, but I can't justify the payments. My '97's doing just
    fine.... when the weak T-45 dies, it'll get a T-56 setup from an '03. When
    the DOHC finally goes (whenever that might be), I'll replace it with
    whatever's out there at the time.

    Kate... your '98's "worn out?" A lil hard on Shug, aren't ya? ;-)

    Thanks, been wanting a Cobra for many years and a supercharged Mustang since
    back in '88. Now I need to save those pennies for a new Tri-Ax. My K&N is
    getting cleaned and installed in the next few days, it's 5 yrs old and this
    will be the 3rd Mustang it's resided in.

    I couldn't justify the payments either but... I've always wanted a
    supercharged Mustang and a Cobra is the next best thing. Just kidding, I've
    wanted a Cobra for a long while now.

    In order to avoid the whole K&N filter vs paper filter thread all
    over again, I recommend going to a cold air induction system. Moroso
    makes a good, affordable one.
