Default Getting a Cobra!

Well, its official I am buying a terminator. Probably not till next summer, but knowing me if I catch a deal on one i might take it before then. Im keeping the GT. Im trying to figure out what color I want. I really like the competition orange, and the sonic blue. I really want an anniversary, but they only come in a few colors. I actually was driving a cobra for a week but couldnt get financed on it. It was an red anniversary and it was awesome. plus that carbon fiber weave in the steering wheel, shifter, and brake boot is nice. I loved those grips on the steering wheel. Im going to look for something as close to new as possible. Bone stock with low miles. Cant wait! I will either put a whipple on it with full exhaust or just do the Hellion kit....

well I just cant stand to let the GT go. the reason im not getting rid of it is because I wouldnt be able to sell it for much, and the trade in is horrible. They were going to give me 10k for it way back when it had 75,000 miles like 2 years ago. Plus ive put too much money into it. Im working on a built motor right now thats going in it, and might use it as a DD......or maybe the other way around i dunno

waste of money to have 2 badass mustangs...especially 2 nice ones...i had my 2000 and my 2006 for about 6 months before i figured that out...especially since neither one was any good in the winter...so i sold my 2000 and got my corolla...i mean if you have 2 stangs AND a beater it isnt so bad but just having too stangs is a waste...do whats good for you but with both the next gen camaro and the challenger on the horizon...i'm gonna wait to buy any other car until those 2 arrive cause trust me are you gonna feel bad if you have 2 new edge bodies in your driveway when those babies hit the street

If you couldnt get financing for a Cobra this year, even if you can next year you shouldnt buy it. Financing a car when you already have a car is dumb.

The challenger and camaro aren't going to be anything special. Camaro is just going to be a vette engine in an ugly body and be heavy. Challenger looks pretty cool, but yet again, it will be heavy as hell and will need that power to lug it's fat *** around. For less money you can supe up the cobra and it will blow away either one of those. Or for the price I'm sure the new camaro will be set at, you could probably just spend a little more and get a vette. Just my .02

I am not sure how old you are, but I would only have 1 fast car and then another that would do circles around the gas pumps for miles...

Why would you want 2 huge car payments, 2 insurance premium's and 2 huge *** gas suckers. You cant drive 2 cars at the same time, so whats the difference. You might wanna save for a house or something else down the road. And if you couldnt get one now, whats to change by next August or whenever....

Dont bite more than what you can afford in life, or it will come back and bite you in the ****!
