I graduated in 2002... and I remember one of my friends took wielding classes. He got job straight outta high school and in 2004 he bought a brand new 2004 Cobra conv. he took me and another friend down 2 lane road bout 11pm with top down at 100+mph... scared the shit outta me, it at the time was fastest thing I had ever rode in and was shocked how fast it was for stock 99-04 mustang.
This Mustang will go in the history books hands down. The Car and Driver TV show (you can find it on youtube) got 0-60 in 4.5 seconds, and a 12.9 second QT mile time. That is freaking fast for 2003. It beat a regular corvette! John Coletti and the svt team did a fantastic job.
Thing is though the f-body was cancelled before this car came out. I do find it funny that it took ford 32 valves and 4 cams and a supercharger to make less power than an ls6.
BB Draggin you serious? The f body was cancelled a whole year before the terminator came out... if you’re gonna speak make sure it’s not just spewing BS kiddo
@Samuel Jones: please check you stats again; the Civic Type R is .4 sec slower to 60 and over a half second slower in the quarter. Mild tuning to the Cobra will get you 100 HP more; that is not possible in the Civic without big dollars or limited engine life. Either way, the Type R is slower.
The IRS could be a bit of a weak point, but the engines were seriously overbuilt. The Cobra block will support easily 1000 HP with upgraded internals and have a long life.
@@adamsdailydriveway TECHNOLOGY!!! Needs a hellcat engine, wait isn't the hellcrate cheaper than a brand new Mustang? Why not buy an old sports car and engine swap the crap with a hellcat engine? Needs AWD.
What the heck are you talking about? The 1993-2002 Camaro is WAY better looking than contemporary Mustangs. Overall, I don't understand what monumental moron drew all of the Mustangs from 1979-2004.
The amazing thing about these cars was that they were underrated from the factory. With just a pulley upgrade, the Terminator Cobra made 460 whp. That is ridiculous for the early 2000s
Meh idk about that if it was underrated I feel like it would be doing better than a 13.4 in the quarter mile. My 360hp 335i did low 13s. Like 13.2 and 13.3 a few years ago with winter tires lol.
@@codymachadoYeah probably with a 8-speed ZF transmission. 0-60 and quarter mile times are not friends with manual cars. These cars are still damn quick especially from a roll.
@@codymachadothey were underrated. 100% stock terminators were putting down 425hp. Plus it was doing mid 13s on street tires. With drag tires they were deep in the 12s.
As a corvette lover this should be a great collector mustang for most fords lovers. Extremely fast and attractive especially with 10 plus on the rear...
I agree. It took some time for the 'New Edge' Mustang to grow on me. I grew up with Fox Body's, Four Eyes and such. Now, The New Edge has its place in Mustang Lore.
This is my second favorite cobra. I just bought a really mint 93 cobra and that one broke the bank a little bit 😬. I can find the 03-04s a little bit cheaper usually. But both will go down in history for sure!
I sold mine a few years ago with 52k on it. Sure loved that car. So many cool things about it. Not to mention it had one of the most powerful and good looking engines ever made. And I gotta say they've aged extremely well
yeah a basic Hypertech box tune and pulley would add 60 hp and 90 lb-ft of torque. would've been nice if the GT gotten this motor N/A without the supercharger and the 6 speed instead of the old 2v 5 speed combo
@@LonewolfWRX your right, I I totally forgot about that, but I just checked and number wise, it wasn't really any better then GT just .2 seconds. Plus the 2v had more low end torque under the curve, and you had to run premium vs regular in GT so the 4v isn't really a significant upgrade like I first thought.
Loved these cobras, they were also underrated HP and torque wise, stock dynos put it at 390hp. With under 1k in simple bolt ons like cat back exhaust, cold air intake, S/C pulley, it jumps to a whopping 450hp!! It's hifs
jaebush yea I understand but the mustang now are to big, Fox bodies and new wedge were perfect size and were consider muscle cars. Mustangs now in days are sports cars Ford loss the touch.
Amazing car. Fortunate to have owned one since was brand new in '04. Can daily drive it or race it! Flexible & practical. New Shelby Cobras are even more of a super car tho w/a super car price tag! Not selling this baby anytime soon.
@A Fera Modify it then. With upper and lower pullies, bigger throttle body, CAI, longtubes, x-pipe, cat back, plus a tune (for not that much $ per horsepower gains)...the terminator lands you in the 470 to 500 whp range. Stock Eaton porting gets you to 530 whp/tq. That's far more than what the average Coyote makes at the wheels. Even a 3rd gen Coyote's 460hp only equates to 410-415 whp. Indeed with full bolt-ons they can reach 460whp which is great for a NA engine, but average torque will be a full 100 lb ft below the Terminator as the Terminator would have useable power and torque across the entire rev range vs the peaky Coyote. And lastly, you have a very important car from Ford history. It's the pioneer of supercharged pony cars from the factory. They hold value longer than the Coyotes do. 2011-2014 1st gen Coyotes have already fallen below the value of Terminators. Why? Well as awesome as the Coyote may be, they are still a "seen everywhere car" vs the Terminator's "unicorn" effect. At the end of the day, the new 5.0s are awesome engines that finally bring back the performance bang the old school ones enjoyed in the late 80s/ early 90s but they are GT Mustangs. Highly popular with high production numbers each year. The Terminators were somewhere around 12000 units at best and if you have one of the rare color combos (Mystic, Comp Orange, Oxford white, Sonic Blue, etc.), that number becomes 200s to 1200s. Distributed across 50 states...minus those wrecked, and you have a car you won't see too much of on the streets.
My dream car, in my dream color. Sonic Blue looks absolutely stunning on this car. Slap a 2.3 Whipple on it and some Borla's and you'll be all set. An absolutely stunning car.
I test drove one of these when I was 18. It was incredible. I barked the tires going into third, shifted into 4th at 80 and took it up to 115 like it was nothing. It's one of the most fun driving experiences I've ever had.
My second favorite Mustang body style behind the S550. They still look good to this day and yes Ford got it right just at the end of the long life cycle of the Fox body.
This isn't a fox body that is the name for 79-93 mustangs. It is on a modified fox chassis which is what he said in the video. Not the same thing. It isn't a "fox body"

There’s a yellow SVT Cobra in the city where I live.. it’s gorgeous, would love to own one, except it’s probably too powerful for me I’d definitely end up in jail lol.
albert7139 there is a yellow one where I live also it’s nice and loud
Hell I am a Chevy man but I would have one of those in a heart beat
Bought one of these in Dec 2002, still running well! Sometimes compared to the hellcat, noticed around here used hellcats at good prices!
car will go down as one of the best
I’d love to have a terminator but can’t afford one. I love my 97 cobra though
Really good body style
$34,750!? Take me back to 03/04!
I almost got one of these in late '04 when they were clearing them out for the 2005 model. Wish I had. 😭
I remember my first time racing one of those. He spun off the line but as soon as he hit second gear he had a nice launch
It "terminated" the muscle car supremacy discussion back in 2003.
@@chuchevasquez nope the Terminator could out run a z06. Then Ford bitch slapped chevy again in 2005 with the Ford GT. And again with the new Ford GT. And Ford will bitch slap chevy again with the new gt500. Chevy will never be "top dog".
in 03 the zo6 was faster... i had them both in yellow, still have the zo6 got rid of the termi to get a lifted truck. Both great cars but the zo6 was such a better car overall
@@isaacbojorquez38 ever single magazine that tested those cars disagrees with you. The termi was faster than the z06. And with a couple minor tweaks they are faster than the new z06 too lol.
well stock v stock the zo6 ran faster times.hit 12.3 on the Z and 12.9 on the termi. the zo6 was a funner car for me all around. i dont miss the termi at all
@@isaacbojorquez38 you are really bad at driving if you only managed a 12.9 in a 03 Mustang Cobra 😂. And I'd have to see time slips to believe 12.3 in a stock z06...
Did the Terminators actually use Brembo brakes?
Not really. Just the rotors were made by Brembo. The calipers were 2 piston ones made by PBR.
With Fox body prices approaching the Moon, I think the SN95's are the next big thing. Prices are already going up with the 2003 Terminator leading the way.
Mine had axle hop if you didn't get on the throttle right.
I snap my rear sway bar from doing burn outs and donuts lol
Mine did too. So bad it made me want a solid axle.
