Try an 03 Cobra...Can be had for under $30k and around a grand in mods can have you around 500whp...
Dude, why don't you do a search like I did before you open your mouth. You can find a 05 GT for $26k

The turbo upgrade would cost more of course, but I'm sure I could do it for around $30K. I unlike some people, do my own work and if the grand total came out to be $30,001...Oh my god!...the sky is falling!
I think I would survive.

As far as getting a 2003 cobra...well if I wanted a 2003 cobra, don't you think that I would of said that I wanted a 2003 Cobra?
I like the newer 05 body style and it reminds me of my dad's 65 Mustang.

are you serious? i'm sure a turbo kit for an 05 gt would be well over $4k, on top of the fact you're negating the factory warranty. plus i've heard those motors are shit under boost.

i think the idea with this thread is to keep it realistic...

Do it so I can laugh when that shit blows up. 05 GT's handle boost about as good as a 200K mile D-series could hold 20lbs.
