Default 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.

Ah ur jus jealous the Prelood didnt come in a vert lol jk jk

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.
