My car sucks

[Musashi3000GT]

Well the 05 GTOs are selling real cheap now, slightly used and you can pick one up for around 24K!

If it makes you feel any better i have an 06 LS2 and probably run the same times as your poney......but thats just me

Actually the guy got his for 22000 and I think it only has 23000 miles. I thought that was a steal. Plus Musashi, I bet you are trapping more than a couple miles an hour faster than I would. I know that supercharger kit would have noticable gains on the stang but I think I am leaning toward the vette right now.

Well obviously you’d be better off with the Vette. I’m just giving you a cheaper option.

Why? The Cobra’s IRS just adds weight and makes the car harder to launch. The way I look at it he’d be better off modding the car he’s got now.

Actually my first inclination was an 03 cobra, but as it turns out they are selling for 5000 more than most 99 vettes I have seen. On top of that nobody can argue that the cobra is honestly a better all around car than the vette, although the cobra is a solid performer.

ehh well that makes sense.

on the other response, the IRS may add weight, but it is unsprung and therefore does not affect handling in that sense and it helps balance out the weight distribution. if you look at SN95 mustangs, the cobras have the best weight distribution because of the IRS. so it may hurt slightly in the straight line but it helps quite a lot on corners compaired to the SN95 live axle setup. another reason why you would buy it instead of modding the car he has now... because it comes stock capable of modding to basically any realistic power for a street application. and its insanely easy to get a lot more power out of it.
