03 cobra help

after doing a pretty good amount of research i have decided that a 03 cobra gives you the most power/style compared to how old the car is and the price. i own a 03 v6 and the handling isnt to great the interior is decent but kinda cheap the next on my list is the 01 corvette but it has less horsepower but in my opinion is built better. it seems that not many cars are in the 300 hp range for around 20k and if they are there way to old or you can mod them up 300 after spending 20k. the cobra seems like it has much potential and is a pretty cool looking car but if it handles like the v6 then that would be pretty bad. i know it has irs but i have heard of bad things with the irs. so my question is basically what do you now about the cobra that would make me want to buy it over everything else and if you think there is something better then please tell me.

p.s. i read a post about the seats in the mustang and how comfortable they are... the guy actually thought they were cheap and uncomfortable thats funny cuz i thought they were the most comfortable seats ive ever sat on plus the cobra comes with suede lol

Re: 03 cobra help

I personally love the cobra and I was (and still am) considering getting one. They are awesome cars and have few parts in common with the V6 or GT. It will most certainly "handle" better than the 03 V6. I do not think you will find one for 20000 though. That was really my only issue with it. You will be able to find plenty of 99 vettes for 19-20000 dollars though. I am pretty sure the cost of driving the vette will be a little more though. You are right though the 03 cobra is faster than the already very fast C5 vette.

Re: 03 cobra help
