Ford in house hot rodders, Special Vehicle Team or
SVT,
had been modifying the Mustang since the 1993 model year. Over the years they
began giving the cars more horsepower and greater handling abilities over the
standard Mustang, turning Cobra from being just a muscle car, to a very
respectable sports car. For the 2003 model year,
SVT
went a little crazy, with the Fox chassis about to be retired, they wanted to
go out with a bang. Independent rear suspension, upgraded Cobra four wheel disc
brakes,
SVT tuned suspension, T-56 6-speed
transmission all built around the centerpiece motor, a 4.6L DOHC 32v engine
upgraded by an
Eaton M112 roots style
supercharger, all developing 390hp and 390 lb/ft of torque.
This extremely clean 2003 Cobra Convertible is painted
Redfire Red with a black convertible top and complimented by the Cobra specific
black leather/grey suede interior. All Cobra’s came loaded with all amenities
including the 6 disc in-dash Mach sound system, power windows, power door
locks, rear defrost (including convertibles), air conditioning, Cobra specific
front/rear fascias,
18” wheels and the
now synonymous with
SVT
products - white faced gauges. With only 28,990 kms showing on the odometer,
this Cobra remains untouched in its factory stock configuration, retains all
its original documents including
SVT
Certificate of Authenticity, window sticker and original selling information.
An incredible car from the factory and a Mustang which has achieved almost a
cult status amongst tuners, this Terminator Cobra is ready to handle whatever
the next part of its history has to offer.
