Was thinking S2000
After dealing with a few dealers who didnt want to work with me on the S2000's I looked at I decided to go back to the blue oval. Final sale came through on the S4 so thats found a new home and I was told by my coworker Joe that there was a 99 Cobra vert that was traded in over at the Ford dealer. More pics to come, just wanted to snap a good one before the rain came! Its one of the last years of the N/A 32V Cobras making 320hp. It is also the only Generation of Cobra other than the 2006 GT500 to get IRS. My Cobra is also 1 of 89 1999 Cobras to get the Electric Green paint with the dark charcoal top and interior. 4055 Cobra convertibles were made in 99 out of 8095 Cobras.

Although being a vert allows for me to do a roadster kit if I want. First thing I want to do visually is get a bar

Im not sure if FEELS like 320hp but it is nice to have a 32 valve V8 with a redline of a B18... certainly alot of fun. Cobras are just akin to me. My mom has owned 7 Mustangs, all of them being GTs. Thats all shes ever owned and I like them. I want to entice her to put her 05 GT up against my Cobra tho ;-)
All in all I love Honda but I have a soft spot for a Cobra. They dont feel anything like a regular Mustang and theyre just a fun car to have. This one was well taken care of and Im just going to keep it and baby it just like I did the S4. My Prelude will always be my favorite daily driver, twin carbs and all =)

Weren't the 99 cobras the ones that were supposed to be 320HP but on an actual dyno they had trouble making even 260HP??? I seem to remember ther being a big huplah about a certain year Cobra being way under powered.
