Overview & Reviews
Heavily updated is the 2003 SVT Mustang Cobra, which makes 390 horsepower and 390 pound-feet of torque thanks to the addition of an Eaton supercharger. A new six-speed manual transmission drives the rear wheels through a 3.55 rear axle ratio. Larger wheels and tires come standard, along with stiffer springs and a tubular cross brace. Cobra convertibles have a cloth top, while both cars get new seats with upgraded leather and suede upholstery. A limited-production Mach 1 model arrives later in the year with a massaged 4.6-liter V8 engine making at least 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, a functional shaker hood with ram-air scoop, black striping, unique leather seating and retro-design Magnum 500 alloy wheels, and, of course, a Mach 460 audio system. Mach 1 can be ordered in a variety of colors with either a manual or automatic transmission. Like the Mustang Bullitt before it, the Mach 1 comes with a lowered, retuned suspension and additional frame rail connectors for a stiffer body. Large 13-inch Brembo front rotors and upgraded calipers are standard.
Standard V6 and V8 GT models change little for 2003. A V6 Pony Package includes 16-inch polished alloy wheels and the GT's scooped hood. All V6 models get a new hood design, and four new colors debut.
- Available V8 power, variety of trim levels, healthy dose of American attitude.
- Archaic structure, aged design.

Black Magic Stang - 2003 Ford Mustang
By globalcheryl - November 12 - 2:39 pmThis is my 2nd mustang, my first was a 1965 red pony which my brother and I drove into the ground. This one will be better cherished. Im short 5 and can comfortably drive this car. I love the way it handles and the auto top is the bomb. I can reach everything.

A True American Hot Rod - 2003 Ford Mustang
By Phil Purdin - September 14 - 2:00 amIt was the end of the year (2003) and I needed a new car. I went shopping without any particular model in mind and ended up with this Mustang GT Coupe. At age 55 I must say this is the most fun Ive had for decades. Ive been driving those 4-cylinder, gas-saving imports for way too long. The Mustang is sheer fun with great performance. The mileage is as good as my wifes Grand Cherokee straight six, when I keep my foot out of it. It cruises beautifully in the 75-80mph range which makes it tough out here in California with so many 55mph two-lane stretches.

The best Mach Ford ever built! - 2003 Ford Mustang
By Machman - September 7 - 10:00 amPretty much the perfect Mustang in every way. It has plenty of power, Retro styling, luxiorious interior, great handling and brakes. I have no complaints. I have met several people who own this car as well and they agree with me 100%!!! I also own a 93 LX 5.0 and it was NOTHING like this Mach!! PERFECT!!!

One Bad Cobra - 2003 Ford Mustang
By blucobra03 - August 18 - 10:00 amI read all the stories about this car before actually driving it and I have to say they cant come close to the exhilaration felt when accelerating. Ive owned everything from a 70 Boss Mustang to Chevelle SS and Trans Am, but this car is just plain muscle. When thrown in with the creature comforts of A/C, Mach Stereo and CD player, its just as much fun as anyone could hope for. Ive even owned a 2001 Z06. It was a nice car as well, but its a different feeling when you get behind the wheel of the Cobra. SVT finally got it right folks. I applaud their efforts.

I LOVE MY NEW TRIPLE BLACK GT - 2003 Ford Mustang
By Heather T - July 31 - 10:00 amI just got my new 2003 Mustang GT Premium. It is awesome. It is a triple black convertable. It has every option and what options they are...it has the Mach 1000 6 disc in dash and what a system...it is well worth the $1300.00 for the option. It is so loud. The exhaust is excellent as well it has chrome exhaust that matches the 17 inch chrome rims. It sounds great...who needs a flow master when you have this car. Although I have only had it for 2 days...I am in love....it is my first Mustang and in 2 years from now if it is still awesome and no rattles....I would definately consider another one. totally satisfied so far.

Love my Pony! - 2003 Ford Mustang
By Red Pony - July 15 - 2:00 amI have had my car for a year & still love driving it every chance I get. I wouldnt trade it for any other ragtop out there. The ride is a little choppy at times, but that adds to the sports car feel. It gets great gas mileage on the highway for a V8 (23-24), much better than around town (16-18) so of course I take it out on the highway any chance I get. It looks great & draws attention everywhere it goes. Who cant resist a bright red Mustang ragtop?
