I had an 03 vert with the kenne bell running 21psi with meth. Great car with a bulletproof drivetrain and engine, besides pistons,hehe.
When i picked my vette I couldnt afford to keep both but if I could-I would never sell her.
Noth cars have different worlds on their own and both are a blast to own so enjoy your new car!!!
Btw my car ran flat 12.001 at 130 with a 2.1 60 foot before I wasnt allowed to run anymore due to no cage.
It was done on Michelin PS2's as well, so with a few more runs mid 11's were no problem-expect the same from the whippled cobras as well.
My friend owns one and just ran 10.4 last Friday on dr's with identical setup as yours!

Even though I love my Corvette, I stil like a variety of other cars as well . . . domestic and foreign. Glad you "love the one you're with".

Congrats. Two of my friends have 04 Cobras. One might be an 03, but i forget. One is black, the other is silver and they both go really good.
After seeing how much I was looking to spend on a Corvette my friend with the Silver Cobra is trying to get me to buy a GT500. I guess a dealership by him has two brand new leftover 07's they're down to 35K for.

Maybe. But this one needs a lot of exterior products to make it look decent. You should sell them. You can make a lot of money. Takes a ton of it to make a Mustang like this look presentable. As you can see by the pic it needs a lot of help.

OK I see some love for Mustangs here but I don't care what car is faster, cheaper, easier to mod, etc.. I dreamed about owning a Vette for 22 years.. Why????... Not because it's the fastest car, has the nicest interior, blah blah blah....BECAUSE IT'S A CORVETTE !!!!
Beefcake if you're happy with your new ride then I respect that...For me no way...

I think he made the best choice he could. Like he said wife and kids and if they wife and kids aren't happy, he isn't happy

Well, congratulations I guess. Personally I could never drive a Mustang but I can still respect people who love their cars, appreciate a beefy V8, and buy American.
