Never been to an autocross, so won't pretend, but seriously I almost never see guys running mustangs faster than F-bodies at the track. And I go VERY OFTEN. If ya'll would like to join me so I can personally show you guys, I seriously wouldn't mind. If proof is what you guys want, I'll provide it. Just ask. Or if ya'll don't trust me, look in any automotive magazine without "Ford" or "Mustang" in the title and read a review. Because of this thread I went and dug up an old Motor Trend and they frowned upon the Cobra in a comparo between it, the SS, and the WS6. I'm not saying magazines are always to be trusted, but they do tend to know what they are talking about. I really don't want to argue with you guys about this.

F-body vs. Fox body! Which crude, clunky and discontinued car was better than the other one!

Eh, I don't think the Cobra is built better than the 'Vette. When you have your qown dedicated factory plus a few years of building experience they tend to be built pretty well. My uncle's Z06 has taken tons of abuse in the past 2 years without comlaint. Not a rattle either. The Mustang has no where near the technology and engineering of the C5.
Go drive a '97 or '98 'Vette and then come back to the Cobra. You might want to hold out.

Excuse Me? You are looking for handling on a Mustang? Go somewhere else for that. The Mustang has never handled as well as the F-body. Period. Although, if it's what you like and what you think fits you best, go for it I say. What I would do personally is go by a GT and save the 6000 and buy a Z28. Then compare.
