    It's funny how you react to things in life. I drive a 91 bad ass stang. Last week it stalled out on me.So I had to get it towed home. The next day it started but had the worse Idle in the world with a back fire every other once in a while. I spent 4 days trying to figure it out. I finally got fed up and got me a 04 cobra comp orange. I'll tell you what. I am freaking amazed in this car. It is extreamly smooth and it has one hell of a pick up. I'm beside myself with happiness. I think I just betrayed my first stang, but you know what, thats what it gets for leaving me out to dry like that. I will be doing some serious thinking to see if I keep it or not. This car is stock at the moment but I am starting my homework to see whats good. Any suggestions welcomed. If I knew how to post a picture I would.

    I jsut bought my 04 Comp Orange 1 week ago today. Nice choice, love the color.

    I also traded in my first stang an 01 Cobra.

    Mine is in the garage and still needs more driving before I get on her but that will come.

    My initial thoughts for things:

    315 nitto 555R
    Borla Stinger Catback (although I may still get the SLP Loudmouth off my 01)
    X-pipe with cats of some kind
    pro 5.0
    long tube headers

    But like you I plan to enjoy it as is for now, debating on if I even want to get my SLP exhaust off the other one before the dealer sells it.

    How rare is the comp orange? I was thinking about buying an 04 recently and I really like the black, but there is a comp orange neer me also. I don't know if the color will be too much for me, but I think it is a pretty rare color which is cool for me.

    Yeah, comp orange is the rarest color for the 04s. Definitely gets a lot of attention.

    I vote for black, because that is what I have. Also never been a fan of the orange, but it is bright. Wanted the mystichrome, but wife didn't want to spend anther $6000 for that one. Plus I refused to pay twice as much as the option is listed for.

    I was real close to getting the comp orange but went with Redfire. You will definately get some looks in that thing. :p I think you really have to be a fan of orange to like it, it's a hot color don't get me wrong, but the more I thought about it I didn't think I could have an orange car. :shrug: I feel that way about yellow also. I had a chance to get a leftover 03' for $29900 but I just could not do yellow. Maybe I'm nuts. :rolleyes:

    rarest also can be looked upon as least popular. The main problem with CO, is that it is also a V6 and GT color....
