Those are 3 Awesome cars. I don't car what some of you say, i love mustangs, no they don't look as great as a Viper but man NEVER underestimate a Mustang because USUALLY those Mustangs you all think are so ugly are FAST as HELL! I know my (i guess you'd say UGLY) Mustang GT will spank alot of your guy's Vipers BADLY!
For sure the Viper takes it hands down in the looks Department but that mustang and Corvette are still cool ass cars.
Thanks for sharing the pics!

very cool pics. Never count an 03 cobra out... you never know if they are pullied, sprayed, twin screwd or turbod... mine made 735rwhp-855rwtq and looked completely stock AND it was a convertible...
great pics though, the viper is the best looking as always!

cobras = fast, but not good looking or well rounded, that's all I was saying.
That's the hard part about owning a unique car like the Viper, it's so expensive to modify and add HP. I also own a Corvette ZR1 with the 4-cam 32-valve V8. It has a handful of mods, with nitrous, and working on a direct port nitrous system. I've spent a lot of money on that car to get it to the HP it has, and even still, it's not setting the world on fire. Same with the Viper, I dread the day I start buying go fast parts for it.
Take a mustang, or rice burner, and you can build a screamer for a fraction of the price. Granted, it will never look as cool, but they will be extremely fast. I know some guys with Supras in Florida who spend a whopping $6k on a single turbo setup and make over 600-HP without touching the bottom end, for a car that light, they are sick fast. Despite all that, I still wouldn't trade up my Viper, because the curb appeal is priceless.
Great pics! Have the same color Viper (a 97). Great minds think alike

I have owned 2 other Vipers and both were red. The B/W is by far my favorite color.....I know , I know Yellow is the fastest. LOL
I also own a Cobra, its a 96 so its not as fast as the 03-04's. I still think that the 94-98 Mustangs look better then the 99-04's. You be the judge.

Thanks...I wanted something unique
I had 2 full price offers and was holding the car for one of them, an Alley member. After 3 weeks of "the check is in the mail" and I will get it next week lies the "little girl"
PM'd me last night to say he couldn't buy it now with a riddle of excuses.The other guy who wanted it bought one from Bernie last week so he doesn't need it now but said he is still interested beause of the condition and price...we'll see, it's back on the market though.
By the way, I spoke to Bernie via email a while back and he said he was surprised you sold me this one so fast. Then I told him you bought another
Take care...hope to see ya soon

I'm a fan of all styles of Mustangs preferably the fox body's. Completely biased since i own a 91 GT though lol

snampro, I totally agree with you 100%
98vipergts, they only look better than 03-04 cobras when they share the same parts, hehe jk (wheels)
jay01m, I still think the three cars that provide the best platform to make something fast include...
96-99 Viper GTS or 97-99 RT/10
03-04 Mustang Cobra
93-98 Supra TT
Cobra is probably the best bang for the buck because all you really need is a pulley and exhaust for 460rwhp or so and it will be less than $1500 in mods. The cars are a dime a dozen this day in age as well.
With that said.... Ill take the viper and I lived and learned with my 03 cobra.. I could have had a TT viper for what I had in that car. Needless to say, once I get done with the move across the country, Ill be getting a viper!

The Viper is my Fav by far. I have the Cobra to take and abuse on the track, parts are cheaper when it breaks.
Let me clarify. I'll agree with what you said, however, if you include purchasing the Viper, you'll have a lot more money in the Viper to make it as fast as something like a modded mustang or Supra. I spent almost $40k on my 97 GTS. If I added nitrous for say $1500, and $500 for a tune, figure $42000 to get ~650HP. Now take $42k and spend it on buying and modding an 03-04 Cobra, and your going to mop the floor with almost anything on the road. Point is, yes, modding a 96-99 GTS/RT to 600+HP isn't expensive if you do nitrous, but the initial purchase to get the Viper is... ouch.

that cobra looks alright, but the roll bar is distracting. I do think black is the best looking color on a mustang. something about the shape of the car.
red is fastest, btw.

jay01m, you are totally right but the price of the viper is worth the prestige (for me at least)
you can argue for all three of those cars, they are all bad ass and Id love to own all of them one day! I have a lexus sc300... kinda like a supra, lol
