I couldnt resist...I just sold my bike yesterday and needed something else to mess around with...I spending a little more than I wanted, but I'll hang on to this a little longer than the others...Im picking it up first of the week and will post some pics when its in the garage.

 

Awesome choice.....color? new/used? details.........

 

you need to talk to Nicky Pass.


he thinks his car is the cat's meow and most agree.

congrats.

 

I got black, black interior...its new, well end of the model year, but oh well

 

What'd ya pay?

 

nice choice.

 

nice bor my good friend just got an 04 red fire, hes had it lil over amonth now and he already has 4,000 miles on it as well as completely tore apart his half shaft and has already had a new transmition put in ha ..... he dynod stock at 386 and with magnaflow exhaust and intake dynod 412 he ran 12.7 too stock, well ne way best of luck

 

man...he must be driving the shit out of it...I paid 10k plus my CL as a trade...I got $7500 for the bike, so only had to come out of pocket $2500...hopefully mine will hold together better than this other guys

 

Where in Jersey is he driving? That is crazy he messed it up so quickly, any idea about the type of driving he is doing?

 

Awesome!
Congrats Zoot !
Better power than the CLS on N20

 

great car to mod, low 12's is easy!!!!

 

 

Following the same path Nicky took.

Congrats on the new car and best of luck with it.

 

Congrats.

 

we are in like south jersey, burlington county.....he wasnt beatin on the car at all during the time, he was comin around a corner shifted into second and the output shaft snapped......the factory said he had a bad stock transmission too.......here are picks of his car and the tore apart have shaft how much does this suck......and click on dyno day my cl-s is on the dyno he aslo took some cool shots on the way there............click on the photo album broken trans.....ull see the pics

well, i may have jumped to conclusions too quick...fucking dealer didnt have the correct price when I went in to sign the papers today. I hate people that lie, and to think I blew off an entire 2 hours of my Sunday and they tried to bait and switch on me...man was I pissed, I told the guy to call me if he ever got his shit together...

Do not buy from Town and Country Ford in Charlotte, NC if you can help it

 

AHHHHHHHHHHH......welcome to the insanely fast darkside!

Check out svptperformance.com.......you'll learn an assload of stuff about the car.

Like Darrin said....
Predator Tuner - $400
New Pulley - $150
Intake - $200
Exhaust - $500

and you'll be low 12's or high 11's.....then you could add a Kenne Bell or a whipple charger and be in the 10's. The motors on these car are basically race ready....all forged internals with 6 bolt mains....they could easily handle 1000hp all day long.

 

This should help you a ton...

sweet! Cobras are awesome!

 

Now ya know, car first thread second.

Any plans on going back even if he calls? Or did they drop the ball completely?

 

I wanna see the pics!

 

Nicky, you'll see the pics as soon as the guy calls me back with the right price...I just cant get over how some dealerships will tell you one thing on the phone, you go all the way up there, then they tell you something different. Oh well, if it doesnt work out, then i'll just do something else....

 

If its a coupe...you should be able to pick it up for like $27-28K.....I got my 03 vert leftover for $33K OTD on a $40K sticker.

 

good choice, have fun and be safe.

 

I figured $29k cash would be good offer, but right now its not enough according to these dealers...Ive got my car ($18k trade-in) and $12k cash...i mean thats $30k right there...who knows, I just dont like the dealers very much right now

 

F'em. The end of year woes will be starting with them soon and they'll call you...

 

damn, sorry that it didnt work out

 

If you can't get on 04 coupe for under $30K out the door....go somewhere else!

 

See if you can find a Mystic. The coupe is hot!

 

Nicky....that's what I figured, but right now it seems like they are wanting $32k for them still, which is $4k under sticker, but it included $3500 in rebates, so they are only going off $500 from that...who knows

 

The dealer by my house has 3 04 Coupes left....www.ahford.com. I could have bought an 04 right when they came out for $34.5K out the door....and that was with no incentives......its winter time....the car isn't gonna sell as fast as it would in the spring. Tell them $30K out the door....and to have them call you if they want to make the deal!

 

the drama is over...$30k OTD, I signed the papers just a few hours ago...unfortunately the car is in Atlanta (im in Charlotte), so they are picking it up tonight and bringing it back, should be ready tomorrow

 

Told ya.....they were just trying to get alittle extra out of you!

What are the details.....color...coupe or vert....?

 

My local dealer had a new Black 03 Cobra....Sticker said "Will take reasonable offers"

 

its a black coupe with black interior (charcoal inserts)...i cant wait to feel the power difference...

Nicky, have you taken yours to the dyno yet? If so, I was curious what numbers it put down

 

No....I'm going to next spring....the SVTOA in my area is having a dyno day in April! As for power #s....the lowest stock numbers I've seen were upper 350s in TQ and HP.....There was one guy on SVTP.com the got 398HP to the wheels....STOCK! Average is is upper 360s to lower 370s. All you really have to do is get a good cat-back and an intake and you'll be at atleast 400 hp. Change the pulley to a 2.93 (14 PSI) and get the predator tuner and you'll be at 440-460 to the wheels!

 

Nice man, glad to hear you got everything worked out. Enjoy the car and be sure to take some pics.

 

congrats, great deal

 

Looking forward to pics

 

will post up some pics later on this week...im spending way too much money b/c I just ordered the SLP Loudmouth...who knows...there goes my warranty
