    All is good!
    Last cobra owned was 69 428 Super CobraJet, I gave up tring to find one like it, got real close but no go.
    Getten to old to keep holding out so I just bought my new 2007 Shelby Cobra convertible over the phone. Figure the one I'm looking for will jump at me as soon as I get me new one home, Then I'll have to buy it as well. Till then..

    I Will test drive my new black on black pony tomorrow.
    Have tons of questions, if any one would be so kind.

    What should I look for? How much RWHP & Trq does ths puppy really have?
    Is it worth getting the 7yr extended warranty?
    Should I leave it stock or add a tune with a smaller pully and cat back exhaust?

    Is ther anyting I need or should have my dealer add to the deal?

    From what I have heard rwhp is in the 430 range. As for the leave it stock or modify it question, that is one only you can answer. My only advise would be if you modify it keep all the original parts so you can put it back if you desire later. Good luck and enjoy!
