a vert isnt going to run a mid 12 stock, only a coupe will do that. a vert is a high 12-low 13 car typically.

well either way i think it is smarter for me to buy a cobra thats already quick and work with that then to save up and Forge a GT. I never thought i would have such a struggle to decide between coupe and Vert. I think for financial reasons i'm going to settle for a vert. I'll be more than at home in this car. Its interior is just about the same as my current car. And its black too, but putting the top down all summer as needed will be a nice bonus. I'll make sure to post the pics up asap. I wish i had an extra 5G for that MistiChrome. Those cars look awesome

the vert will start to grow on you. i know i didnt like em intill i road in it with the top down. supprizingly it didnt leak one bit in the car wash too!

Smoothgrandmama · February 7th, 2008, 03:25 AM

mmmm Yummy Cobra's...

There are alot verts for sale though and not just Cobra's...Vipers and Vette's too.

MarcInJapan · February 7th, 2008, 06:35 AM

Coupes all the way.

KC knows what kind of power you can get out of a termi with those mods def, intake,exhaust,tune,and pulley, will make a termi haul pretty good ass over stock actually but 500 to the wheels is a HUGE! stretch for that, ive seen on run 11.8 with the intake,pulley,exhaust,tune and decent tires, not drag radials or anything, so it might haul ass but 500 is alot to ask to the wheels on those mods, and does a 03C come with a plenum

Mustang RacR94 · February 7th, 2008, 09:07 PM

id rather take a coupe any single day of the week to, i dont like drop top cobras, they look "ok" with the tops down, but i hate them with them up

mikeGTmurr46 · February 7th, 2008, 09:32 PM

I'm going to West Virginia Saturday to check out their selection of coupes. And I'm looking at 04 now.. I rearranged my financial situation and a nice low mileage 04 is within my reach. And as much as i would like to put the top down this summer I'll just have to borrow my sisters GT Vert. I gotta cruise a coupe, thats all i have owned in the past and i just gotta keep it that way. I almost bought the Vert but i couldn't do it. After a 5.5 Hour drive i hope to come home with a nice cobra. The guy has a competition orange i may like. I heard they are pretty rare.

acobraman · February 7th, 2008, 09:45 PM

I have a coupe and a vert, they're both fun to drive! Pretty days, you go out in the vert, with the top down.

mikeGTmurr46 · February 7th, 2008, 10:18 PM

well its nice to be able to take the vert out, i think my sisters will please me. Its a 2000 automatic darker red GT with black interior and a black top. It has a catback and my old intake plenum -->Filter. Its plenty for her but thats like my economy car lol. i think i'll stick to my manual coupes and keep the power where it belongs instead of leaving it to the tranny and torque converter.

97Cobra · February 8th, 2008, 02:29 AM

economy car...in a mustang? nahh. my step dads 03 cobra gets 24mpg on the hwy and mine gets about 17 n Id rather not say what they get in town getting on the gas.

mikeGTmurr46 · February 8th, 2008, 03:04 AM

economy was me referring to the drivability of it. With it constantly being a gear too high unless i step on it. its like the only way to drive that car right is with the O/D OFF button...

97Cobra · February 8th, 2008, 03:20 AM

but in all actuality who really dosnt get on the gas while in a stang?

mikeGTmurr46 · February 8th, 2008, 10:11 AM

yeah. you'd be surprised how easy it it NOT to in this car. You have to put the pedal down pretty far for it to do anything but bog. Don't get me wrong, it can be drivin quickly, but most of the time i just get mad that i can put the pedal halfway down and just stay bogging and droning. its been like that since it had 24000 miles and its still that way today. Really, in my opinion the older automatics are allot more fun to drive. Like my old '95 was a load of fun.

sounds like you need a higher gear ratio

mikeGTmurr46 · February 8th, 2008, 11:57 PM

yeah i told her all she needs is 4.10s and a tune and she'll be one happy girl. But she'll never get that unless i do it for her. And unfortunately for her my car pulls priority over hers.
