    Things I hate about my 03 SVT Cobra......nothing....it does everything that I want it to...and after owning it for almost 18 years...I’ve come to know all of its idiosyncrasies...just a blast to drive...while everyone else was trading theirs in for the latest greatest...not me...I knew it was something special when I bought it...so I will never get tired of it....

    I've always wanted a New edge Mustang since I was a kid went with a V6 to save on insurance (only $4 per month to add it to my policy) knowing it wouldn't have the power I wanted I took the 3.8 V6 and turned it into a 4.2 V6 marring parts from the f150 V6 swapped over a lot of GT and Bullit parts as well. It now puts out closer to 275hp and can keep up with my 2003 Subaru WRX on the track. It is defiantly a great platform to build a cheap track day car.

But in the late 99 - 00 era it was a cool car and it still is just needs a coyote swap. Honestly sn95 and always the new edge will be my favorite Mustang

    Do you know I was starting to think that I was one of the few people that actually love the new edge mustang yeah I know it’s not the most powerful thing in the world but it’s a sporty car, it’s not a status symbol, it’s not a race car It’s a commuter car that’s designed to carry two adults and maybe two small kids or get you groceries and or get you around town or to work etc. but people are screwing up the mustang by expecting it to be more exotic sports car like because I’ll tell you one thing that my car can do that a Porsche or a Ferrari or a Lamborghini cannot do fit into my budget or I can Park it anywhere at the mall and not worry about it or I can afford the insurance on it or you can get parts for it anywhere and I never have to hear if you can afford this car you can afford the repair bill Big shot!

    The 4.6L 2 valve is one of the best engines Ford has ever made, not including the older pushrod engines like the 351 Windsor. I have one in my 2003 Mercury Grand Marquis transportation car, bought with 49K miles, now has 273K miles with no problems other than a bad alternator. These are cop car engines, and they are built to last. The 32 valve may make more power, but they are a lot more fragile with a lot more to go wrong.

    I have a 2004 GT with a rebuild transmission with shift kit, 373 rear end, full top end and 93 octane tune. For street it does awesome but it is no hi-performance machine. I do love that it can move when needed buy it definitely can't be competitive against the newer muscle cars. Easy to work on and parts are plentiful. Door panel leather is pealing, only issue with the interior For a Florida car it's entire life the leather seats have held up well! I give the car a 7 out of 10. It needs paint bad(there was a recall on certain paint codes, Oxford White was one of them).

I'm the second owner and have the complete history with the car and the maintenance records from the previous owner. I also own a 1981 Fox-Mustang Hatchback with L6/AT in Medium Blue Metallic Glow and has 27395 miles and had being parked in 2010 till it was put on sale in 2017. Both cars are unmolested original exports and sold true a well known car dealer called Hessing (no longer in business) in The Netherlands. If you like i can send a personal message with photos. Keep up the channel and don't forget the V6's... Greetings and have a nice day, ERIK.

    I still own my mustang since I bought it new in 1998 and that you hit the nail on the head with center console. Man what a stupid design. After years of opening and closing it finally broke, and I upgraded to the 01 design and I took it a step further by grinding off the clip. Not to mention the two previous idiot designs with the first cup holder in the way of the shifter. Another thing, I don’t know why Ford insisted in having a super long antenna and not a shorter style one from factory. I also eliminated by having the body shop shave it and STILL get great signal.

Some of my friends tried to talk me out of it because of issues with timing chainds/ guides etc but the car has had a life of doing a lot a long highway miles around australia and it has beeen well maintained from what i see. Anyhow, I haven't received it yet as a friend of mine picked it up in another state yesterday. Can't wait to fly up and drive it home about 600 miles and see how it goes. Will look out for some of the issues you highlight here and will be looking at more of your videos to learn more about these cars. Cheers! Sam

    Not everybody who buys a Mustang wants a performance car. I bought a completely stock 2003 V6/auto in Zinc Yellow, with an optional spoiler, beautiful condition, a 9 1/2 out of 10, 68K miles, mostly because I just wanted a 2 door rear wheel drive American car with a solid rear axle. Those are almost impossible to find without going back to the '70s, and I didn't want an unreliable project car. It certainly didn't hurt that it looked great, my neighbor has a very late model Subaru BRZ, and I think my 2003 Mustang looks a lot better. Mine has the open rear end (I don't do burnouts in it) with the 2:73 ratio, which is great for cruising down the highway at 1500 rpm. Makes for a long lasting under stressed engine and great mpg. It did come with 16" wheels and new tires, but I have located a set of 15" wheels from a 1999 model, and when the tires wear out I will be installing those on it so I can have wider sidewalls. I may even be able to find RWL 15" tires to fit.

    Hey Danny, it’s been a while, but the next time you wanna open that center console, make sure it’s opened from the front. Rest your forearm and relax it as normal, put fingers directly in the front, and pull it open as if you were opening a book that’s resting on a big laz-e boy arm rest. It just makes more sense and opens as intended, I used to open it that way on my GT and low and behold it came off, 3 years later it’s curved and disformed. Now with some moisturizing of the foam and some elbow grease for the original fit and it’s holding up just as it did from factory. That’s when the enlightenment of the correct way to open it came about haha

    Those old 4.6 2Vs with 260hp and 302lb ft of torque get too much hate. They are one of the most reliable engines Ford ever made, there are literally parts available everywhere for them, they werent really that underpowered for the time period and they can be built to 300+whp engines reliably that's in a 3200lb car. I've owned 4 new edge cars....a 2000v6, 01, gt, 04gt, and 03 cobra, and they are easily my favorite mustangs out of the newer model years, and more importantly they NEVER left me stranded and hurt some feelings back in the day as well. I had 473whp and 464wtq in my cobra with just a pulley swap, intake, exhaust and tune, and my 01 gt made 307whp and 334wtq with full bolt ons, exhaust and tune, and had 4.10 gears in it. Took the back seats out and a few other weight reduction things. It would slap my stepbrothers 98 z28 from a dig and a roll, but his car was also a stock auto and mine had those mods and was a 5 speed manual.
