Good to see that I'm not the only one that rocks plastic/vinyl floormats to keep my good cloth ones clean. I've been meaning to pick up another cheap set for my red car.

I guess I'll cross-post my dirty car in here while I'm posting...that muddy looking crap on my turn-around pad where I'm parked was the result of a cracked heater control valve on a friends car cracking in half and spewing rusty dexcool all over the place. :icon_mad:

Driving that sweet low mi, rust free TGP in the winter makes baby Jesus cry.
Agreed.

Why don't you drive the Cobra in the winter?  Those are a dime a dozen. :dunno:

The Cobra costs a lot more + is worth a lot more money, it only makes sense to keep it nice. Driving that car in winter won't really hurt it much if it's taken care of and washed off regularly. I mean don't get me wrong, I love the TGP's as much as the next guy, but you've got to realize that these cars aren't holding much value at all except to US....maybe another 20 years from now they might fetch something decent though. ;)

Nick you really ought to do some homework before you make comments hahah, 03-04 cobras in a snapshot first supercharged mustangs from the factory ever!  That gt500 has nothing on my cobra, my car came first and laid the groundwork for that car.  Plus in most tests the 03-04 cobra performs equally as well if not better than a gt500 while costing 20-30k LESS.  Finally dime a dozen?  How many do you think were produced?  In my year only about 10k were made and mine being black on black is one of only a few hundred.  The power potential of these cars is insane.  I gained over 100hp at the tires with BASIC bolt on's.  These cars are quickly achieving the GN and 96 supra status as some of the most powerful street cars ever put into the hands of the common man.  This car is for all intensive purposes a working man supercar.  The internals of the engine are all forged (pistons, manley h beam rods, crank you name it)  It is essentially a "built" engine from the factory which is why guys are putting twin turbo kits on these cars and making over 800 hp and driving them to work everyday. 

Drive it in the winter over the TGP?  Yeah right.......
