Cobra.

I completely agree with Jack. Vettes don't suck, they're just not for me. Plus, I think 03-04 Cobras are sexy bitches.

The vid seems so strange to me though...
Like, it doesn't feel like the sound matches that car's body style... if that makes sense

I agree. It sounds like the DB9 Vanquish to me. Not the cam sound, but the sound that you hear from the inside of the car. Like I said if you're going to do some serious mods Z06...but for me, being a DD car, I'd take the Cobra hands down.

I feel the cobra is a bit more down to earth. It has a rough-edge quality that gives the feel of badassness with a youthful energy. It says, i have a badass car and ill kick your *** if you **** me off.

If a 4 Cobra was a meal, it would be a 20 ouce Ribeye steak with all the trimmings with a nice good full flavored beer 20oz beer in a frosty mug served in a dim lighted steakhouse with a riding bull off in the corner, with a smoking hot waitress who really knows how to wear a pair of jeans.

A corvette is far more classy and refined and a bit stuffier in my view. A cross between beauty and power with a very tasteful and refined edge. It says i have a wet-dream sports car and if you get in my way you will be hearing from my lawyer.

If a Corvette Z06 was a meal, it would be a filet mignion glossed in a peach and smoked apple glaze and a butternut squash side covered in a burbon raspberry sauce, served with a $50 bottle of (insert french wine name here) and enjoyed in a classy restaraunt where "jeans" are not appropriate. All served by a well groomed waiter who knows where to go to find a good show afterwards.


both cars in my view make a statement about the driver.

the corvette just does not fit me. ... but it is a beautiful car.
nicely put jack.

I've drove Z06's and they just feel like something an old man should be driving.....you also can compete with the whine of a supercharger.

Cobra's just scream bad *** to me....If you have a Procharged Z06 then I'd go for it, but stock to stock I like the look and feel of a Cobra better.
corvettes are extremely common here too and they are share the same characteristic, great car terrible driver. its always old guys and their wives or whatever trying to feed their need to be a kid again with their hotwheels. i have tried to race some of these vettes and they look at me like im a "hooligan" i would love an 04 cobra black all over or a sonic blue

Would you rather drive this?




Or this?

<- My car in the corner


These are two guys I race with, the Vett being in the Red River region and the Shelby in the Arkansas region. Both have similar horsepower levels, but one is consistently faster. And I know that it's not an 03-04 Cobra but its not a C5 Z06 either so its still fair.

I might not get either. For all I know I might keep the GT and throw a novi 2000 on it.

I am old enough to have an appreciation for alot of cars, but that doesn't mean I'd like to own one. We just recently got done with a 65 Vette convertible, 327 4 speed, and the guy is the original owner. Its black, black interior, and black both hard and soft top. 65K original miles. Super nice car, and I honestly kinda hated to see it go, after it was there for 6 months.

I'd have something like that before I would a newer one. At least his has character. Again, I like the looks of the newer ones, but I'd take the Cobra hands-down.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, but I still love the sound of it.

I agree with you on this one. Since I can't get my mind off it I'm getting one for sure, hopefully in a few months.

I wasn't gonna reply but I voted for the Cobra. Most reviews I read says the Z-06 is great but still has cheap *** **** for interior. cheap plastic, cheap leather seats,etc. I'm sure both have their cheap stuff where it can be put inside and out. But I have sat in a Cobra and it feels good. Plus you can watch Cobras spank Vettes all day on u-tube. Then again you can watch Vettes do the same. I just think an 03/04 Cobra is pure eye and ear candy to me.. I would purely enjoy having one, as I do just owning an 04 GT..

C6 ZO6 anyday over a GT500. The corvette would just spank it around the track. Cobras and ZO6s are common around here and see both of them all the time. Lately all the cobra drivers I've been seeing have been older women. Not sure whats Sure vettes don't have the best looking interior, but it ain't bad. Is a Mustangs interior really that great? Last time I checked there was nothing fancy about it. At this point I think it all depends on plans for the car and what your gonna do with it. I for one am not a fan of the roots whine. I've had the cobra debate in my head a few times lately, but I think it would be cheaper to go the blown 5.4 route since my car only has about 3-4k left before being paid off.

I know it's from a C6. We were just talking about the interior of a C6 z06 vs a GT500.

0-60 Vette wins
0-100 Vette wins
1/4 mile Vette wins
cornering Vette wins
Bad *** factor Cobra wins


The Vette will out perform the Cobra in every aspect but it just isn't as cool

So true, the plastic is really cheap. But all cars in this era look like that in the inside, or all muscle cars at least.

It doesn't really bother me, you just can't say one interior looks nice than the other.

So basically....the Cobra is like...that badass popular inebacker with roid rage. Big, and mean, beats alot of *** and gets laid alot by cheerleaders and ***** at parties.

The corvette is like the really skinny veiny track runner at school who is really fast, probably runs a 4 flat 40 however he has to wear those plastic glasses with the strap around them when participating in athletic events, and while he isnt particularly
considered a cool kid at school, he still has friends. (probably WoW players.)


Thats my take on it. : D
