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.

Overall an excellent Mustang - 2003 Ford Mustang
By An automatic - March 14 - 10:00 amThis excellent car is a huge step up from the 1993 GT I owned previously. It is far more refined and much more of an adult car. The handling and power are smoother, the power band broader, the breaking much better, and the manners are calmer. Also, the 1999-up cars have probably the first decent leather seats in the history of Mustangs.

SVT COBRA - 2003 Ford Mustang
By svtxchinoy - January 31 - 10:00 amWell, almost a year now since I had it. It hasnt done me wrong yet. Only a shock swap that had to be done cause of the quality NYC roads we have here (yea right) Besides that, cars doing great, especially after a K&N oil filter. The motorcraft was fine, but, I suggest avioding FRAM. Made it feel sugglish after only 1000 miles after I changed the oil. Can definately feel a difference when using the K&N one.

The Fabulous 3.8L - 2003 Ford Mustang
By mustange14 - November 17 - 2:00 amThe over all performance of the 3.8L V6 is very exceptional, take offs are quick and I found to be just as enjoyable to drive as the 4.6L V8. The new Pony Package adds extra interest to the exterior of the car and gets quite a few long stares from fellow motorists.

Bad Ass Machine - 2003 Ford Mustang
By TopRacer - November 17 - 2:00 amThis car is the best to drive. You mash the throttle at any RPM and the car just launches you forward and you GO! The comfort and ergonomics of the interior seats are great. I wish they were a little further back, but hey. The rush you will recieve when you drive this car is unbelievable. I would recommend this car to anyone that doesnt mind the 15mpg but loves the 390hp and 390ft/lbs of torque on tap. The car is easily modified also. There are owners out there as of Jan 03 that are pushing 500+hp from the stock motor. The car was made to handle the power and it sure does.

By Josh Shipcoff - October 6 - 2:00 amThe 2003 cobra is obviously the best buy on the market putting out 425 horses at the flywheel and chevy stomping performance. Oh and youll get the ladies.

2003 Cobra - 2003 Ford Mustang
By chapmanal - September 19 - 10:00 amHave only had one mechanical failure. Twisted the rear axle shaft splines at the drag strip using drag slicks. This was not the fault of the vehicle. Normal driving would never do this.
