The screen could have navi...it would cost like $500 to add it. I'm not taking the springs off...I may have them take off the mufflers so I can sell the Comptechs....

and I aint going anywhere...I love this forum!

My new plate: NIX SVT 1 its what I had on my 93...now I want it for my 03!

Shit man, congrats on the purchase. That's one hell of a mean car. Don't go too crazy on the Chicago streets!

What's funny as no one has made the comment of "another one bites the dust".

The ratio of people selling their CL's and moving on, to newbies coming in with their recently bought CL's is almost even.

Dude, congrats on the car. I've been mulling the idea of a new Cobra myself. This thread makes me want one really bad.

remember it is not your car until you actually drive it off the lot. even after you sign the papers, if you just sit in your new car and don't drive it off the lot you can still return it

X-Pipe & some sort of flow thru muffler sounds fuckin wicked on Cobra's

Any other options on it? Chrome wheels, Mach 1000, Anniv pkg, etc?

If you plan on doing major audio upgrades the Mach 460 can be a small pita to mod because it has individual amps for each speaker. :o

Anyways, get some nice break-in miles on it and get that thing to the track. Dr's will net high 12's if you can drive worth a damn. I'd suggest getting a short throw shifter also, it made a hige difference in the shift precision for my little T-5.

Here's a sample pic of the same car to quiet down you picture whores.

Congrats Nicky. But I wish you would have gotten a home first.

The last thing I would do is to get a gas guzzler with moron oil price supporting Bush in office, maybe for another 4 more years.

But I was the same way when I was young. Broads and cars first, everything else second.

But to both you and Juniorbean (he said it), "buying a home wrecks getting new cars" (or something like that.) I do NOT agree! Home ownership made new cars more affordable to me as I was a better credit risk. I was getting the 0.9% finance while everybody else was paying 7 or 8. I've has 7 new cars in 11 years.

Here's the deal Nicky, and I mean this as a friend. You have rolled the dice on a new car, and fine by me. You had better hope to hell interest, and therefore mortgage rates don't rise, and you better get into a home, something you own, no matter how minimal really quick. That's the key!

Back when I couldn't afford to own, during the Carter administration, an affluent friend of mine bought a house and interest at that time was 18%! And by the way, the house wasn't much above a cardboard box.

GET A HOME, NOW! GET ESTABLISHED. IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THE TAJ MAHAL! THAT IS THE POINT, AND I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE WHO SAID IT.

Just keep in mind that we have a moron at the controls in the white house (and his handelers), and anything can happen, and if if does, it won't be good.

Again, congrats, and I want to see it AND have a ride in it.
