my buddy has a 2003 cobra and hit 12.8 one time when it was still stock, tires as well.... I think the unofficial record for a 03/04 stock is 12.3 or 12.4 but its a record for a reason hmmmmm

your friend is a decent driver then...that record was probably optimal conditions and it was probably done at that track in texas where all the stupid records are done...

Here we go now...I could see the 1/4 mile flaming argument a mile away with the title topic...lol. I've personally never been a fan of any Mustang built after 1970, but to each their own...if you like it cool...who gives a fuck how fast it is or how fast its not. The plain and simple truth is that; like a Civic...you can go to any 7/11 and buy shit off the counter to make it stupid fast...lol. Personally myself for the same relative money...I'll take an EVO...lol

Heres a Pal Waynes 2003 Cobra that has many many mods. Its one hella beast on the on the track :D Kenny Bell twin screw ect ect ect that puts out 780whp. Pully and tune will give you almost 100hp straight away. I can email you tons of pics if you ever want some ideas. Congrats on a very cool car!

looks good! I just can't stand the cheap feeling/looking interior on stangs of that era, but they are fast/fun cars! Have fun with it!

Me too, the cobra's are not like that.

on slicks <_<

Actually R&T did a 12.9. I can tell you from experience that 12.9 in a 2003 Cobra is a done deal http://www.mustangcult.com/2009/05/ford-mustang-0-60-and-14-mile-times/

Oh my...Dublin...why the hell did your buddy gayify that Mustang by putting on the Lambo doors? Why didn't you guys have an intervention and stop him? Unfortunately being a convertible it was gay to begin with...it didn't need anymore help in that department...lol. Just my opinion of course...I'm just not a fan of convertibles. The only 2 people that get a free pass in the convertible dept are chicks and "hairdressers". Give me a hardtop anyday...I don't need my hair to blow in the wind...lol

ha dude, i know what stock quarter mile times are and unless you are a pro driver you'll never hit mid 12s, you'll be lucky to get 12.8. i've owned one. with a kenne belle 2.2 and a fully built rear end...i know how fast those cars on. on street tires i ran a low 11.

So you had an 03-04 cobra with 7-10K in mods, and you ended up with a 99 V70R? sounds like you lost out on that whip :( HOW ARE YOU SATISFIED!

buzz's girlfriend .... Whoof!

Nice car man, you are going to love it for sure. They are so easy to modify at such reasonable prices compared to any Volvo. A simple pulley swap, exhaust and tune and you will be going faster than most cars can dream of going.

The whole quarter mile time debate with this car is really because of the IRS suspension in the rear, not being able to handle the torque this drivetrain can produce. Resulting in crappy (for a mustang) 60 foot times. This of course means nothing on the street. Your new car is an everyday cruiser that can have well over 400whp, take a beating and yet drive as any regular everyday car.

I'd trade my wagon and 2000GT "Faleen" for your car in a heartbeat.
