Which, in your opinion, would be funner to have.

a) you got a v6 mustang but w/ every afermarket part available and a supercharger. along with suspension lowered, nitrous, but stock interior and exterior(a true sleeper). And say that all the stuff makes it faster than the 04 cobra. It would be a true sleeper bc even honda civics would laugh at you, but you could possibly beat a vette.

b) a real 04 cobra. you know the deal, 6spd, stock supercharger, leather seats, street presence. oh yeah, its fast, but not quite as fast as the above fixed up v6. People on the street KNOW that youre fast and arent at all surprise when/if you beat them in a race.

the sleeper with the surprise kill?....or the street presence that is expected to beat most?


I myself would enjoy seeing anyone's face when they got beat by what they though was a stock v6. Thatd be like, the fun car. but i'd rather my everyday car be the real cobra

 

I owing an 04 cobra would take the cobra just because of the little things. Like they make alot less cobra's = more rare than all the little v6's out there and also the little features on the inside but I guess you can put in some of that stuff too huh??? Well I'd still take the cobra

 

yes i understand that cobras are much more badass than all the millions(seems like) of v6s that exist anywhere on earth. but just the idea of a sleeper than looks stock and nobody expects to be anything special, then whooping a vette. would that be more gratifying than just having a cobra that everyone knows is fast to begin with.

 

04 Cobra No Question....

 

tell why. and give the pros and cons, yadda yadda. make the thread interesting

 

Pros A cobra is a collectors car its nicer in every way than a v6 …

Cons V6: Do you know how much money it will take to make an 04 V6 faster than a cobra? Also I don’t want a sleeper.

Did you ever hear a cobra with Headers, X-pipe, and exhaust? its Bad *** :headbang:

Pros Cobra: With a $ 80.00 2.81 Pulley and a Diablosport Chip $279.95 you can add 4-5 PSI to your supercharger. That can be up a 60 HP gain. That’s a lot for $ 359.95 you can’t add Hp like that for that cheep in a V6.

 

sheesh, i guess i wasnt clear. this thread wasnt meant to be taken too seriously about money efficiency and what would be the best deal for the money etc. sleeper or non-sleeper? thats basically it

 

cobra without even thinking...

 

I nice, used 2003 Cobra is about the best bang for the $ there is. Heck, the mods are already on it and it's actually not quite the same as pouring money down the drain. That's what you would get with the V-6.

I would get the sleeper if that was all I could afford and then spin it by thinking that is was really cooler than a snake, but it really never would be, now would it?

Look at it this way, would you rather have a stock GT or a Honda Civic Sleeper with 300 hp? Case closed...or is it?

 

If you want a fast car start with a fast engine then make it faster. I know about having a sleeper. I had an 85 SVO 4cyn turbo, highly modified. Since I had a single 3" exhaust I would get tried by every import and domestic out there and they would soon discovery not to mess with me. If I would have invested all that time and money on a Cobra I would of made more power then I ever could with the SVO. I am currently doing a sleeper with my GT dropping in a Cobra block and eventually a supercharger or turbo.

 

psst, don't tell anyone about it.

 

ok you guys still arent understanding the point of this thread. its a complete fantasy what-if situation. what if a guy was offering you a tricked out v6 stang thats fast than an 04 cobra..or an 04 cobra. it would be free and you could only have one. then there's my question..sleeper or non-sleeper. this is not like a "what should i do?" kind of thread.

 

No we get it. But I still would take the cobra without thinking because it is just better car. I would rather have a cobra than a sleeper V6 I don’t care how fast the V6 is….

 

Answer to your question: Cobra, hands down!!

And the only way to make this thread interesting: Vida Guerra

:happy1:

 

OMG ure plan is working already. This thread is actually exciteing now! j/k :tongue3:


:sign10:

 

I think we all get it. But nobaody wants a 6er when compared to the snake. Since the 6er has a billion dollars in it to make it compete with a vette and the snake is stock..... there's always the "what if I spend $400 on the Cobra and make it a true beast" factor. The 6er is maxed already - no where else to go with it.

 

u have to be an idiot to take the Modded v6 over the stock Cobra.

The stock cobra will ALWAYS be worth more. IF, u decided to trade the sukker in..do u think they would give you more for the modded V6 or the Cobra? NO...Case CLOSED
Even if you were not goint to trade them in...I would still take the Cobra...WHY...BECAUSE ITS A FREEKIN COBRA!

 

Cobra, not as many stupid challenges... Only see Vettes as comp... (Vipers don't bother w/ anything less than a Vette)

The sleeper would be annoying to have @ any light because you would find yourself wasting so much gas to make a point... Everything from soccer moms in a hurry to kids in primered unfinished rice burners would drive me up a wall.

Its bad enough in my GT as it is... I'm finding way too many stupid challenges in my '05 GT:
-A Miata -come on
-Eclipses....
-3000GTs... expected more from 'em
:disgust:

 

that is true. Even if the v6 could beat a vette, itd be hard to get any to want to race you. theyd all think youre crap. atleast the cobra would have respect but then it would have all the challenges from the ricers. theyd be so confused in al the dust left behind. hehe

 

Definitely Cobra as its the entire package. You said as fast as a Cobra how about brakes?

 

If they are saying the cobra, the obvious answer is they would rather have a "non-sleeper". What more of an answer are you looking for? lol

 

i dunno. i guess i just expected a more diverse response. but...the people have spoken

 

I think what everyone likes about the Cobra is " BLOWER " man.

Blown V-8 power is where it's at.. Plus it is tucked in so nice and neat. You cant hardly tell it's blown because it fit's inside the hood. SWEEET :toothy6:

I'd rather be blown. LOL :la:

 

The Cobra: Looks better, has much nicer seats, and sounds a million times better than the 6'er ever would.

Not to mention I don't think there's a 3.8 out there that could handle that much power. Supercharger + Nitrous = blown 3.8

 

blah blah blah, if my aunt had ***** she would be my uncle. what if i modded out a geo metro to beat out my little sisters tricycle. or what if it was the other way around. a suped up tricycle would be more realistic then a modded v6stang being better then a cobra.

 

man, that is some pretty funny stuff.

The bottom line is, if fast is the sole measurement of how great a car is, then it would be simple. My GT when it was stock, would be better than 90% of the cars on the road. The only place where speed is the only criteria is at the track.

anyone for closing down this thread? Give me one vote, and I say it's time to lay this one to rest.
