http://www.svtperformance.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=32679 I have read quite a few posts of people that are thinking about buying an 03/04 cobra and are hesitant because of the complaints they read on message boards. Seems that 87 percent rate the 03/04 Cobra a 7 out of 10 or better. Half of the remainder of the votes below that are the typical people that would **** if you gave them a one hundred doallar bill instead of two fifties. For these type people, there is no such car manufactured and that is a perfect car.
Agreed! I love mine even though it has it faults (rattles strange noises etc) But she still keeps me smiling
The best ford I have ever owned. Could use more sound proofing, but then again I was'nt buying a Towncar. But to all their own. 87 Gt Vert 95 Gt 5spd 98 Gt 5spd 02 Svt Lightning 2003 Svt Cobra, bassani catback (bassani X pipe in this weekend) pro 5.0 shifter, and my CAI should be in today from densecharger.
Yellow Horse I was one of those people. Before I bought mine last month all I did was read about one problem after another from clicking under the hood to IRS problems. But your not going to find a better car for the money. Besides a 03/04 will be under warranty.
... i dont completely agree. Funny to hear this cause the mechanic that does my work was saying the same thing... that the people having problems were the kind that **** about every little thing.. HE THOUGHT THAT UNTIL HE BOUGHT THE CAR.. his 03 which is the shops guinea pig needed a new drive shaft and a completely new trans. It vibrated bad and wouldnt shift into 5th with a 500 miles or so on the odometer I guess many of us..including me have given into the fact that you get what you pay for. You are really paying for the engine....not a quality car.. I love my car for the track, but there are things that would be bugging me if I drove it every day. Sqeeling windows, broken power seat, second pair of leaking foglights and an assortment of other strange sounds... poppin in the rear. etc etc My Volvo (pre-ford) with 230,000 miles doesnt have those problems! My experiences with the car and with the service have made me think hard about whether or not to buy the Ford truck i was thinking about.. Seems like the quality is better in the truck dept...but maybe thats because of the type of people who own/buy trucks? Maybe they arent as picky about quality?
Lets see... My car was made 07/02, I purchased it 08/02. Thus far I've had the following replaced: Drive Shaft Rear End Assembly Hood Latch Fog Lamps 2 Drivers side heads My car has had more than it's fair share of problems... U.M.
