I owned a 1998 Ford Mustang Cobra from 1999 until 2010 and it was one of the best cars I have ever owned. Its only weakness was its notchy five speed manual transmission. It was fast, comfortable and had no mechanical or electrical issues.May 09, 2022

Fell in love with this car the moment I saw it. It is a beautiful, fun car that always attracts attentions and compliments. You wont be disappointed if you pick one of these up. The convertible is great on a nice day. Nov 10, 2014

Car has great styling, and performance from the factory, this one has about every performance part you can get for it. Great gas mileage for the amount of power, comfortable front seats, fun to drive with the top down. Grabs everybodys attention with its look and exhaust note.Aug 26, 2014

Very fast car stock. brakings great. all around good sports car. always room for more power with this engine. The car takes quite a bit of punishment from me and still drive like new. It only takes high test gas. It wont run well on regular.Apr 08, 2012

I have owned this car for almost 10yrs. I beat the snot out of it every time I get a chance. The car has never failed me other than having to change the clutch out. I am only pushing about 375hp with the mods it has. This car is lowered and it handles sweet. Nov 28, 2011

This 1998 Mustang SVT Cobra Conv has it all. Great performance excellent acceleration, superior braking, firm handling without sacrificing a nice ride. Drop the top, the fresh air and the sweet sound of the Magna Flow exhaust is outstanding. The interior and exterior is superior. This is five star performance and appearance at the right price for what you get. May 29, 2011

My 98 Cobra looks, runs, and handles like I just drove it out of the dealership in 1998, with that, it has no squeaks and rattles for it's age. It's been garage kept since day 1 and has 67,000 miles on it. I am the second owner and payed $7,800 for this Cobra. It is my 14th Mustang and it is my favorite one out of all 14, included in those 14 was a 40th anniversary Mach 1, and a 96 Black cobra, and many foxbody 5.0's, some GT's some LX's. I also owned a restored 1966 coupe. Feb 03, 2010

I need to chase down rattles and various other car
things, otherwise it's great. It's got 120,000 miles on
it and still running strong, there are very few things
that I need to change on it but I'm picky about my car,
so they get changed. Has a Maximum Motorsports
suspension pack; that's why it rides rough.Jun 16, 2009

lets see i have always loved the way cars like mine look. the cars are very powerful to be non supercharged. they are easy to maintain if they are kept up. the car is a blast to drive because its definately a head turner. i have dreamed to own one and now i do.Nov 27, 2008

The Cobra is powered by a 305 horsepower version of the 4.6-liter V-8with 32 valves and other goodies. By the time you reach second gear, you're already exceeding the speed limit in most sane communities. Third gear is an excellent one for cruising around. The revs aren't that high and you can travel at the speed limit and still have enough in reserve for great acceleration.
Fourth and fifth are almost afterthoughts. Sure, I did get to fifth during my morning commute (traffic gets up to 70 mph sometimes, even though it is often close), but the engine is idling at under 2,000 rpm at that speed. Fifth is a great gear for tooling along on an Interstate or major highway where you know you aren't going to need the great acceleration power of the engine too much.

I've owned my 98 since 2002 and have put roughly 50K on the car with no major problems. Just tires, brake pads and gasoline. Jan 15, 2008
