    Dale Jarrett Mustang Concept Feeback Requested

    I too would kep any gaudy graphics off the car. Dont call it a "Dale Jarrett edition" or anything like that, I dont think it worked too well for Chevrolet with the "Earnhardt Editions" they had. Now I REALLY like the whole," if you did it much like Dell sells computers (built to user spec...

    JBA 2005 Mustang GT at SEMA

    Any dyno numbers on those parts. There is some confusion out there that aftermarket parts (non power adders I.E. headers, x-pipes, etc.) arent making a big difference in these cars due to the stock tuning and the electronic throttle controls. Any input?

    Shelby Expedition and no Shelby Mustang?! WHY?!

    RICKS, I think you NAILED it. There is no way in hell that a future SHELBY MUSTANG would make its debut at SEMA. Can anyone one say 2006 Shelby/Boss 302 (5.0 cammer)! Or something along those lines anyway.

    Another Dealer taking advantage....

    I think its sick what they do with these cars. I hope NO-ONE in their right mind will buy that thing for that price. Especially considering that the "Market Adjustment" (due to availability I would guess) will be around for a short time considering the 30,000-50,000 Mustang GT's scheduled to...

    JBA Exhaust on 05 Mustang sound clip

    The thing I dont like is how gradual the acceleration and deceleration of the engine . Maybe its the "throttle by wire" but it seems there is no "BAM" when the throtle is pressed or depressed, just a gradual rise/fall in RPM.

    Mach 1 or 2004 Cobra

    I think the main advantage of the QA1'a are the more rigid rebound. The absorb the initial shock very well but where they shine is limiting the amount of reboundafter the shock is intially compressed.

    well the roush sucks

    I will withhold comment untill it is FOR REAL. Photo's, or drawings never look real close to real life. Remember all the photochops of the '05 before it really came out. Big differances.

    Anyone else find the current Cobra's seats to be very uncomfortable?

    yup, theres a little button down there and when its depressed the side bolsters move outward

    MAC Straight Shot & Accufab Throttle Body??

    More air doesent mean its moving "faster". When the opening is made larger (95mm), the velocity of the air flow DECREASES. You put on the 90mm unit and the same volume of air still passes through in the same time which equals INCREASED velocity. Thats why the air "slows down" with the 95mm...

    2000 Cobra R Exhaust Tips and Dimensions

    I just wish someone would come out with the Cobra R side exhaust as a kit, be it Borla, Bassani, Magnaflow, etc.. I dont care if it makes 3-5hp less than my current exhaust, I just want a nice looking side-exhaust and the Cobra R one is the only one that fits the bill for me.

    Buying a Cobra, NEED HELP

    Do you really think 5000 mile oil change intervals will hurt a modern car? Maybe back in "the day" it would have been bad, but in todays cars most have 5000-7500 mile oil change intervals, synthetic or not. As long as it doesent eat oil, I wouldnt be too worried. I changed mine in my 03...

    Can I drive a 2004 Cobra in the snow?

    I did it...ONCE! I only live like 1/5th of a mile from work. It was snowing, couldnt get my beater out of the back-yard, decided to take Cobra in, its not far at all, I can see my work building from home. I didnt spin, but I really couldnt get above 10mph w/o the car wanting to slide around...

    get a super deal on 04 mustangs when 05 comes out?

    For the most part un-molested 03/04 Cobra's are pretty reliable. The early cars were plagued by "first=run" issues. Driveline clunks, highway vibrations from driveshaft/rear, the infamous "tick", and the "stall". The problems were almost always with the first run 03's. I have one of the few...

    get a super deal on 04 mustangs when 05 comes out?

    04 Cobra- no, 04 GT- yes. I would think that the 04 stang will have some really nice deals going on come late summer/early fall. 03/04 Cobra's are lookng to be the power bargain of the decade. Rumor has it that the 06/07 Cobra (whichever it is) will either have the 4.6 stroker motor w/400-425...

    2003 cobra or 2005 GT=which should i buy?

    I actually think handling (in a performance sense) wil go to the Cobra. Smoothness and everyday driveability to the 05. I like to call mine my "point and shoot car". Cause if you see somewhere you want to be, you point the car in that direction, pull the trigger, and BAM...Your THERE...

    2003 cobra or 2005 GT=which should i buy?

    You need to decide WHAT you want the car for: 1. Collectability? 2. Performance? 3. Fun to drive? 4. Comfort? 5. Potential? 6. Looks (bling factor) 7. Costs (insurance, fuel, etc...) These are what I went through when trying to decide. 1. Cobra 2. Cobra - HUGE adavntage 3. Cobra -...
