This Year's Model Updates:

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.

Pros:
  • Available V8 power, variety of trim levels, healthy dose of American attitude.
Cons:
  • Archaic structure, aged design.

    Great car. Ford has done it again 390hp/390ftlb! Im glad to see that they brought the Mustang back to supercar status. With a few mods you can have a car that will burn up any old Z06, and saving yourself at LEAST $10,000! Not to mention there is no electronic steering column lock to short out(Like the ones on all of the Corvettes)! (That means you can start your car, but you cant turn the wheel.) My buddy has had 3 replaced! The Cobra will take any turn you throw at it thanks to its 9" wide Goodyear Tires. Buy a Ford, support your country!

    When I first bought the car I was deciding between the Mach 1 or the 03 Cobra. I chose the Mach 1 mainly because of the lower cost and I liked the fact that it was non-supercharged. I love this car and am extremely glad I bought it. It can easily eat up any camaro and with a little work corvettes too. I havnt ran it on the track yet so I am not sure of what it runs number wise.

    Never had such a fun car! Ive only had the Mustang GT for a month, but I cant imagine my joy of driving changing much. I would recommend that everyone looking for a fast car or an American classic look into this car.

    I love my new car!!! And Planet Ford was a great experience all around! I never had so much fun purchasing a car. Every where I go with my car I get so many compliments on it. I love the lines, and well just about everything! I cant say anything bad.

    This is my first convertible, and I love it. It has plenty of power for me and is a real head turner, especially with the top down. I love its sporty and sexy style.
