Traded In

jjraiser · 08-07-2006, 10:26 PM

I just got back from my friendly neighborhood Ford dealer after trading in my 2003 Cobra for a 2007 Mustang GT. No, not a GT500, not a Ford GT, just a Mustang GT.

Why???...Economics I guess, but regardless of the reason, I miss my baby very much. I had her for 3 and a half years and did quite a bit of work on her. Only you guys will really understand the "withdraw" I'm going through.

While I won't "need" to visit this forum anymore, I will from time to time. I guess I got to find new forum for my new ride.

"Caroline" was my Cobra's name, and while she's now gone, she won't be forgotten.

Hope you enjoy your new ride!

if you have one, throw up your favorite pic of 'Caroline'

Enjoy your new 3v -its chassis is 47% stiffer than the one you traded in...

I would if I could, but it won't allow me.

Sorry to hear that you gave up your Cobra. You might like www.MustangRodder.com It is not this forum but it is a nice one. Good Luck with your ne GT you should have fun moding it.

Just my opinion but there will not be another Cobra like the 03 and 04.
