I noticed in your sig when the mystic was stock you ran a 12.79 @111. Hmmm, you think spending 34K would make you a little faster. I just have a little ol stock internals LT1 with all the bolt-ons and I ran a 12.60 @ 109.
Thank god I did not have a LS1, who knows how much faster I would be as a full bolt-on car.

yeah ok your cobra runs 12.70's stock.(dont get me wrong i like the new cobras). but they got a N/A "bone stock" down to the paper eliment 02 SS to go 12.90's bone stock on radial tires at 109 MPH in GMHTP in the summer heat.
Snor.. Correct me if i'm wrong but hasn't Evan gotten a bone stock 03 Terminator to run 12.3's in MM&FF?
It's too bad the Cobra is $35,000+
put a blower and cooler on an LS1. no other mods just that. Race and see who wins?
GMHTP did a report on this actually. they had a 2001 SS i think. had headers, catback, blower and cooler and tune and it put down 498RWHP. i think it went mid 11's on DR. im lookin for the article now to post it.
also, im not sure what you guys paid for your cobras new but down here on the ford lots all the new cobras have a 9,000 mark up fee. about 7 months ago i went up and drove a black vert 03 cobra and it was over $50000
As i said earlier.. I know guys who have gotten 03 and 04's for Invoice or Alittle above.

also as for the looks of the car, why would it matter if it looked like a base mustang? sounds like some people buy their cars for the status and not the actual performance. FWIW, the Z06 can look exactly like a lesser base model. you need the side scoops, and wheels. hell theres many fake z06's running around here and you wouldnt ever know unless you looked at the badges or they told you.

"Maybe a bit off topic...But here is what the LS1s hear and a pretty good shot of what they see"
Now by that statement IMO he was implying that the Cobras sound better and beat F-bodies on a regular basis. Whether it's true or not is really irrelivent. I don't know about your definition of durogatory but mine is anything negative or insulting and that certainly qualifies. Also note that there was no kill. This is NOT the lounge, this is the Kill story section and there was no actual kill story here.
While he did say he had respec (forgot the t in his post) for LS1/LT1 he then said Cobras rule! This could also be taken as durogatory because this is not a Mustang website. That's like going to Fenway park and shouting to the crowd that while you think the Red Sox play well, Yankees rule! Accurate or not accurate it's unappropriate either way.
This is not IMO a question of how good the 03/04 Cobra is as a car or engine. I know how good they are and what they can do. I respect the car. I for one think Ford should be applauded for that move as well as the newer Mach 1's. But lets not totally lose sight of the fact that a Mustang owner came here with the basic intention of "rubbing it in" that Ford had a current model vehicle that produces insane numbers and sounds good and we don't.
This whole thread was started in a childish manner. Others acted just as childish by responding to this troll in an insulting manner. The best way to hurt a troll is not to feed him. Imagine if there was no responses to this thread after say three days. It would have sent a message that we don't lower ourselves to that level. But unfortunately that didn't happen here. My point here is that you too were childish to respond to this and now I am as well. That's right, I'm an equal opportunity slammer. I'll slam myself for responding to this drivel. But don't sit here and act like your above all of us. Your just as bad because you too fed this rediculous thread.
Rawazzlt1 quoted me recently in his sig for the following statement I made.
"You can take pride in your ride without insulting someone elses"
It seems that the guy who started this thread does not follow that same philosaphy. Neither do some of the F-body owners here (but not nearly all of them). Perhaps if he would have put this in the lounge and chosen his words a tad more carefully this whole argument could have been avoided.
Now go ahead and flame me for this post if you wish. I look forward to butting heads with you on this issue if that is what you want. But I still think we all made a mistake by even responding to this thread because I don't think it was as innocently posted as you seem to.

Ok ricekillr you are a real piece of work. First off I didn't know what mystic meant, all I said was that it sounded pretty gay to me. You are right I hate mustangs, why do you care??? And as for ignorance, anyone who's name is ricekillr is pretty much a dumb *** in my opinion

Define the word ignorance for me there inbred indiana boy. Ignorance has nothing to do with me thinking the Mystic Cobra is an ugly car. It is a personal opinion. Now if I said that it has 140 horsepower and 13 inch rims that would be ignorant. Remember that when you write your eleventh grade english paper for Mrs. Smith

Definition of Ignorant:
The condition of being uneducated, unaware, or uninformed
You have no idea if he is a dumbass or not, your just saying that because he said something you didn't like. No matter what you think, just because you think he is a dumbass doesn;t make him one....after all what makes everything you spew from your ballwasher gospel?

oh and 6 speed, how did it feel when daddy forked over the cash for you to get your camaro. A real sense of accomplishment? Maybe if you ask real nicely this x-mas he will get you your very own mystic cobra. You would probably be the happiest little boy in Indiana. Good luck, who knows you could ask santa for it

Haha.
and here we go again....
first of all thanx for backing me up all...ok sniffin...
1.) you're right my name is kind of stupid. when i was younger and i first got my hands on my old LT1, all i used to do was try to race imports because i thought i was such a badass. if you look you'll notice i've moved up to a different car with a pretty decent amount of mods that i worked hard to pay for. i didn't feel like setting up a new username just because i changed cars so sue me....
2.) "Ignorance has nothing to do with me thinking the Mystic Cobra is an ugly car. "....news flash, when you make a make a positive statement like that without having any idea WHAT A MYSTIC COBRA LOOKS LIKE, it IS ignorance.
3.) calling me a dumbass because of my username or someone else inbred because they are from indiana is F**KING STUPID....grow up. By the way, WHERE THE HELL did you even get the comment about 6speed's car being bought by his father??? you have no idea who he is.
4.) How old are you honestly? you make a lot of references to childlike behavior....does anyone else find that a tad IRONIC
???
5.) calling somone or something gay or fairy (which by the way is not spelled faerie mr wizard.) really just exemplifies your own insecurities.
6.) "anyone who's name is ricekillr is pretty much a dumb *** in my opinion" YOUR OPINION SUCKS! (In my opinion
). for your information i just looked up my grades for this semester and received a 3.78 GPA. I also attend on full academic scholarship. im IN NO WAY bragging or being arrogant, but please dont call me a dumbass if you've never even met me. ok?
sorry everyone i rarely get into stupid message board battles with people, but this guy was lobbing us all grapefruits here, i couldnt help but take a swing.
