    Hey man just an opinion on the 2012 GT 500. I owned a 2011 with the same package with the narrow stripes and 373 gears and it was a great car especially with all the bolt on parts. However I would caution you that many of the 11-12 GT 500's experienced second gear grind when pushed hard. In fact Ford addressed the issue by making the 13-14 much more robust with carbon second and third gear synchros. The other thing to mention with the 11-12 is that the rear end desperately needs better control arms and relocation brackets or the thing will try to kill you if you hit a bump while at speed. Good luck with your search.

    Great video. IMO i would go for the 11-12 if your going to be adding mods. Again my opinion, buying a 13-14 to me is like buying a Terminator, only 2 years made and I would feel guilty modding it from original. Very much like you commented on current 13-14 owners that barley use it because of that reason. Its a great testament that Justin's high mileage Shelby still takes the punishment of a bigger boost etc... Whatever your choice is, its yours and good luck. Cant wait to see what happens

    All the gt500s are pretty much the same in the end once they got bolt ons and the same blower theyll all make similar power this is 07 all the way to 14. The 14 makes more power mostly because it has a stock 2.3 tvs. Throw that tvs on a 2007 gt500 youll get similar performance for ALOT less money. I prefer the 11-12 myself for the aluminum block and factory wideband and knock sensors. Throw a gen 3 like this on a 12 and its a beast for way less money all in including the blower upgrade (which will eliminate the performance gap between them). I dont get all the fuss for quad tips and all that im old fasioned give me two big tips coming out the back and im good. Quad tips almost seems ricerish to me. The 220 mph gauges is dumb too it wont even do 220 itll barely do 200 and they had to screw the gearing up just to get it to do that. I prefer the gearing on the 12. The tails are better but i dont mind the 12 tails. If i had a 12 i wouldnt be like tryin to rush and change em out. I like the matte sideskirts and rear bumper on the 12s...it is on the car where you normally have problems keeping yoir paint from getting chipped anyways like behind the rear wheel wells so that is why i like the way the 10-12s are. I like 13s i just think theyre overpriced for what you get considering an equivalent 12 is as much as 10-15 grand difference and all you really need is a blower swap to equal the playing field. Id rather have a 12 and throw a gen 3 or gen 3r blower on it and fully upgrade it with the money you aave over 13-14s. Theres alot of myths about the 13s being better than 12s when in many ways they arent ecspecially considering the price. Having a 5.8 is cool till you have to replace it theyre super expensive. Someone like Andrew who is swapping the blower anyways it makes so much more sense to go 2012 but ppl are willing to pay 10-15 grand more because the taillights are prettier and they can say they have a "5.8" lmao.

    In general, newer iterations of just about any car are usually better. The S197 platform, trim for trim is in every measurable sense superior to the new edge platform. Then the S550 came about and eclipsed the S197 and eventually the S650, or whatever it’s called will eclipse the S550. If you’re worried about impressing people or being the fastest guy out there you’re always going to have to upgrade cars, just the way it is. On the other hand, if the car you have is enough and gives you joy......screw everyone else. Just depends on what you want.

    The problem is that we are competitive. When we own a cobra and realize all these new cars are coming out with similar power with less effort, you start hurting. And want a faster car. His girl is making so much power he wants to be able to keep up, and he realizes it's hard unless he makes drastic changes ither to his terminator or buying a more powerful car. Give this guy some room to breath. And as his followers you should support his decision and try to help him out. Owning a terminator isn't easy guys.

    Owning a Terminator is an honor! In Andrew's position, the Terminator is the last car I would sell out of the bunch that he has. It is way better than any of the other mustangs he owns and is holding it's value. I'd love to own a Shelby too, but I would never sacrifice my Terminator to get one! Shelby is a fantasy for me, but my 03 Cobra is my dream car. I get goose bumps every time I drive it. After all it is the forefather of the modern mustangs. It is 16 years old but remains very competitive in today's performance class.

    Terminator was and is likely the last true "SVT Cobra" Ford made or will make. There is no other that can compare, with that. Andrew admittedly said he bought the Bullet to beat on, and the GT500 was not really going to be anything "much" more than a show car, he could play with every now and again... Question, how is that any different from what the Terminator could offer? Is E85 kind of a bitch to get? it can be ... But, if all you are doing is showing it with the occasional run for fun, how much of an inconvenience is it really? Are GT500's nice.. Sure they are, but to a true Ford/SVT guy, the last SVT Cobra ever built holds a special place that few cars will ever achieve.

    @@_carnivore_joe1520 I couldn't agree more. And E85 is no excuse. I live in NJ, a non E85 state. Yet with 93 octane gas my '03 Whipple Cobra is easily capable of 650whp and more on a stock bottom end. That puts it right up there with the GT500. And that's with an old gen 2 Whipple 2.3L blower! A modern gen 3 would get more power and on less boost. I don't see anything boring or limiting about that! With 3.73 rear gears, my Terminator is an absolute terror on the street. In my wildest fantasy(lottery winner?) I would still keep my Cobra...probably have one for each day of the week! I do feel lucky too though, because it seems that Terminators are much rarer in my area than down south, so mine gets a lot of attention as well as competition(Mexico) from others who think it is just a regular old mustang or NA Cobra. Boy do they get a shock!! (LOL) And when I die, I won't need a coffin. They'll just bury me in my Terminator! My headstone will read..."I'll Be Back!"

    It sounds better and looks better on paper but in the real world with the same blower they make comparable power pulley for pulley. I dont think its worth 10-15 grand more just so it sounds better when you say 5.8 instead of 5.4 lol. It's just a bored out to the max 5.4 with the same long stroke so they both are very torqey and they both sound basically identical since it's the same thing. They both have the same ford gt heads on them which is why 5.4 makes comparable power with the same blower. If you're swapping the blower either way it makes so much more sense to go 5.4 since it's so much cheaper. They can handle power just as good if not better than the 5.8 can. Anyone who really understands gt500s know the 5.4 is just as capable as 5.8 and on max effort built motor builds they both seem to make similar power. The 5.8 just costs alot more to get there.

I have one year before I pay off my truck and ill be buying my 2013-2014 gt500... 😀 yours is completely over the top and the drum line the cams are playing is music to my ears man!!

    Its about the best bang for the buck and vmp is so right some 13s in 14s with low miles they srill want 50 and 60 grand or more. I would with 11 or 12. For rhe price to save money.

    I agree 1000x over lol. I actually kinda like the 12 better anyways. 13s are nice but imo theyre overpriced. The 5.8 isnt all that the 5.4 is just as capable the better stock blower is the biggest difference once you slap a tvs on the 12 itll make comparable power. Also isnt as expensive to replace if something goes wrong 5.8 is crazy expensive. A vmp 2.3 is what 2500-3 grand brand new? And that is better than a stock trinity blower...same thing but vmps flows air better so since 11-12s are around 10-15 grand or more cheaper than 13s it is a no brainer...that leaves plenty of cash to upgrade to blower to one better than what the 13 comes with so you got almost the same car for 10+ grand cheaper.

    The ONLY problem with a 13-14 vs the rest is gearing. Put a 3.73 in it and your good. Dont settle Andrew, get THE one you want in the color you want. The market is going to be flooded with them soon with people trading for the new one

    It isnt just the rear gearing that is different the trans gearing is different too i prefer the 2012 tr6060 gearing and 373 gears. Theres another problem with the 13...they cost 10-15 grand more vs comparable 2012s. That is alot when all you need is a 2500 dollar vmp tvs and supporting mods to be more than enough to run with any bolt on 13 for alot less money. I like the 2012 alot more for the money its a better bargain. Its also the underdog and i like that...everyone assumes the 13 is so much better when it isnt. Blowerswap on a 12 and its game on. As for the brakes i dont like the larger brakes because you cant fit 15s on the rear and at this power level you need all the traction help you can get. To me the 12 is the better car for the money. You can have a car that performs just as well as 13 models for way less money (mods included). Now i get the argument most make is well you can make anything fast with enough money yada yada...true but in this case a 2012 gt500 with a 2.3 or 2.65 vmp blower is gonna be very similar to a 2013 gt500 with stock blower youd have the same car with comparable power and better gearing and the ability to run 15 inch drag wheels out back for way less money. I think the 5.4 can handle power slightly better too once both are pushed hard many others feel the same as well. Its all in what you want i just think if youre planning to mod anyways ecspecially if a blower swap is planned the 12 makes alot more sense for the money

Your trying to make money selling the cobra to upgrade. Quit dissing the terminator. Low compression small this small that. Plenty of terminators fixed this that would eat a gt500 for lunch. Admit the terminator is a stepping stone and your just trying to flip it. The fact you already own a terminator you should Teksid block the car with 10.5:1 and you will see a new light

Im all for coyote swapping a gt or whatever but an 03 cobra has an amazing engine in it already no need to "swap" it.

    @@driver69dr yea but it costs 10-15 grand more than a comparable 12 off the rip. Your argument would make perfect sense if they were equal on price but they are far from it. A vmp gen2r 2.3 is more than enough to equal the playing field between a 12 and a 13 performance wise and the 12 has better gearing so up to 160ish the 12 would easily be faster than a bolt on 13. I dont see whats so great about the 13 myself. The tails are nice but the ricer quads and ricer 220 mph gauges (it wont even do 220 it can barely do 200) and all that other stuff just isnt that important to some people. I honestly think the 12 looks as good or better stock for stock than a 13-14 when equipped with the svtpp wheels. The tails are better on the 13 but i dont mind the 12 tails. With tint over the reverse light strips in the middle it makes em look alot better. Btw you can get a new 2.3 vmp gen2r for a gt500 for like 2500 bucks. That is a far cry from the 10-15 grand youd save not going with the overpriced and overrated 13-14. Even if you insist on upgrading to the ricer quads and the 13 tails and the other small stupid stuff it wouldn't be anywhere near what an equal 2013 costs. Some ppl still want 50+ for em. Ive seen some nice 30k mile 2012s for high 20s you just gotta shop. To me its a no brainer ecapecially if you plan to swap the blower anyways it makes 0 sense not to go with the 12.
