Best car I have ever owned!

Date of Review:  Jul 6, 2000
The Bottom Line: Well, three years into ownership, still honeymooning with no intention of ever selling car. I've since driven several more expensive machines, nothing touches the performance/value of the SVT Mustang Cobra!!
Review: First I must point out that the estimated price for this car is wrong! I own one and the base price with no options starts at $26,390. Mine has every option except the leather which was a free option, but since I live in the heat and I hate hot...

Mustang Cobra - If you like the GT

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2002
The Bottom Line: Excellent handling, excellent interior, super fast acceleration, and a very good price, together make a combination for a sports machine, most any car enthusiast would enjoy.
Review: Since 1964 the Ford Mustang has offered amazing performance for its owners, despite some power issues in late 70s and all early 1980s models, the Ford Mustang prevailed, and brought performance back to speed enthusiasts with the 5.0 models in the...

Better than in past but a few gotchas

Date of Review:  Dec 31, 2007
The Bottom Line: Buy the GT.
Review: I have 90K on my '98 GT now. Much better than previous models ('68 GT,'74 II,'86 GT) I have owned/driven. Handling is much improved but you need to be aware of several maintenance issues; most notably, the intake manifold and seat mounts. The all...

Sports Cars are fun...mostly

Date of Review:  Feb 18, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you want to say you have a sports car and have been a Mustang owner...Go for it.
Review: Let me start my saying this was my dream car. I don't know why but I fell in love with it. Finally in 2001, I bought one used. I still have it to this day. I will state the pros first by saying that the only things I have ever replaced are the oil,...

Date of Review:  Nov 28, 2000
Review: I was immediately attracted to my 1998 chrome yellow Cobra as it sat in the showroom. Under the dealer fluorescent lighting the fit and finish of the exterior body panels were excellent. A look at the window sticker revealed the full complement of...

Very fun... pretty fast...

Date of Review:  Dec 11, 2007
The Bottom Line: Great car... too bad my friend totalled it.
Review: This car has very good power with the 4.6L V8 engine and it is a really fun to drive convertible. I would not buy this car stock, I would go with this mach stereo system and leather seats for sure. The two front seats have room good enough for...

Cobra Cruising

Date of Review:  Sep 6, 2000
Review: If you've always wanted a convertible this is your car. I just love it with the top down and the power from the engine to the road is addicting. If you love the American sports car then this is the apple pie of excess. You won't drive it in the snow...

Great Performance Bargain

Date of Review:  Dec 17, 2001
The Bottom Line: For less than the cost of a new GT, a used 1998 Cobra Convertible is a very viable performance buy. SVT has a winner here.
Review: My wife and I purchased a used 1998 Chrome Yellow Cobra Convertible in Feb 2001. The car was in great shape and had only 22,000 miles on the clock. I had liked Mustangs since I purchased my first back in 1991, (which I drive every day to and from...
