Just gives us a little time its in the works. Need to work out some traction concerns first.

I wont say that the F&F movies are totally to blame but it didn't help at all . I bought my Supra Pre-F&F.

If I were to try to buy one now chances are I wouldn't do it.

I would more than likely try to find a used LX model ( I believe those are the lighter ones ) Mustang build the motor and turbo charge that sucker.
I agree. As soon as I get my current ride situated and my house in order. Look for something special in the future..

Both are kick ass cars, just like to point out Cobra is only 281ci to Z06's 350 ci and the Cobra is almost half the price.

Yeah but it is a Corvette! Bitchs always run for the vet first.

That and a Covette would waste the pony on a road course.

Well using the price of the two cars does not lesson the kill. If you take a Z28 for instance which is 10k less than a 03 Cobra and put a forged bottomend($3k), 6.0L truck heads with stage II porting ($2k), ATI Procharger with injectors, LS1 edit and COG($6500), and install if you do it yourself($nothing).. You have $10500 into the car. You are just $1500 more than a 03 Cobra. What is the result of this? At about 9 to 12lbs of boost you have out powered the 03 Cobra b4 3500rpm. By 6krpm you have outpowered the KB 03 Cobra in the video of this post. You ask why most do not do this? Money!!! On the same Z28 you could build a faster car for $9k less and if you really want to get crazy you could get the forged bottomend and heads just for security and the ability to spray MORE...

You make it sound so simple. Except 99.99% of the people out there couldn't make those installs themselves.
