In all honesty, I think that the aluminum frame and magnesium carriage would play more of a roll in it becoming a "classic", than the engine. Anyone can put a 427 in their vette, but what I listed...

It does look good. A bud of mine has a white '03 with blue stripes. I'm just not a fan of stripes.

2003 was the year of the 10th anniversary. The first SVT cobra was produced in 1993. I am sitting on a 2004 Cobra as well, which is actually the 40th anniversary of the Mustang. However, there was...
