They're great, but I'd rather get a Corvette. I'd choose an SVT Cobra over a GTO though.

I know two people that have cobras. The Z06 and the C6 are the only challengers they have. I mean stock vs stock. My friend is constantly raced by modded camaros and firebirds. The standard heads, cams, intake, etc.. They are neck to neck with a cobra that has intake, exhaust and a solid rear. The IRS (Independent Rear Suspension) is extreamly weak. If you do get a Cobra and get some add ons I would get a solid rear.

If you are right then go with it, because I said 95, but I think that I was wrong FOR COBRAS we need evidence

03 and 04 are the only factory supercharged Cobras period. The 66 shelby GT350S could be order with a supercharger, very few were.
