My brother is getting rid of his '99 Cobra. He already put his down payment on a 03 Cobra today. He is the first one in that dealership. Here is the question, he has ordered black, but can change the color w/in 10 days. What do you think of this color? I personally like it.

Thanks

VERY nice color (maybe even better than silver), and a great angle on the shot.

Amazing how much better the front end looks.

Is he getting the coupe of the convertable? I would personally get either the zinc yellow or red convertable, imagine the rumble of 390 horses with the top down!

Well, this is the brother. I've been a reader of this forum for over a year now, might as well post. smile

I went with the coupe. Verts are nice, but I can do without the extra weight on an already obese car. I changed my mind on the color three times when I was placing the order last night...Black...no, Sonic Blue...no Black. laugh Oh well. My '99 is Black now, and love the way it looks when it's clean (not often enough) But the Sonic Blue does look cool! It is availible on the 2002 Mustangs, and the Focus SVT. Maybe some other Ford vehicles, but those are the only ones that I know of.

Well, thanks for the replies guys, and keep them coming!

Seeing how I changed from black (too hard to keep nice) to blue I say GO WITH BLUE.
