the difference between a 98 mustang and a 98 mustang Cobra is the the DOHC motor in the Cobra.
the 99-01 Cobra had better heads than the 98-98 Cobras. the 03-04 Cobra has a forged engine and a supercharger.

Much better. Much Much better. The regular mustang GT's have the SOHC engine while the Cobra's (and Mach's) have the DOHC.

Just -03 and -04 are supercharged. But they also are the only ones with independent rear suspension, which is good stock vs. stock GT setup, but with much fewer upgrades available.

The 03-04's are not the only one with the IRS. 99 and 01 Cobras also have it
