possible new owner..help?
 
Hey guys..currently drive a low mile, 03 cobra with about 450whp. i like it BUT...its kind of plain. fast, sounds and looks good but the interior is lacking, styling is, well kind of old, technology is just not there other than motor really. Test drove a new 370z yesterday...was very impressed. power was good and smooth, handles much better and can be pushed harder than my current ride. plus, HIDs, an AUX hook up, much more stylish interior and the potential for good power....what are your thoughts?? should i sell it and get into a Z?

We all like are 370Zs here.

Crazy potential exists to go further than your current ride as well….. so heck yes, go for it:tup:

thats what im thinking..i mean for a brand new car the sport package is priced nicely too...coilovers, full exhaust, intake, tune, wheels...man...

My opinion ^

You'll love the car even while stock, but you can have a lot of fun with her too :tup:

damn, that is pretty impressive...just got caught in the rain in the cobra, lack of HIDs...dammit

So much power you can add to the car. I love the z and the options. Sport package is well worth it to me.

Do it, you'll be glad you did!

Having driven a few Cobras in the 450-550whp range, you're definitely going to miss the power. FI is going to be a MUST for you otherwise you'll be kicking yourself for selling the Terminator.

I love it... it could definitely use a lot more power but I have no regrets.

My previous Mustang was only a GT, so the difference in power isn't really a shock like it'd be going from a 450whp Terminator to the Z. Coming from that level of power I think you'd definitely be itching for some forced induction after the "new" wears off.

BTW -- hope you have some thick skin, because it's only a matter of time before the legions of Mustang haters that inhabit this board chime in.

d02808045 03-22-2010 08:44 PM

:iagree: Go for the Z!!!

sean2e 03-22-2010 08:46 PM

yeah im used to it..im not even a huge mustang fan. went from sti to gti, evo, tundra, to cobra. sooo i just want to find a car and keep it for once ya know..like the way my terminator is set up i cant push it through turns etc etc..when i drove the z it was just fun..and you never know how much you miss simple things like an ipod hook up lol..cobra is just fast ya know
