At the start, 400 HP is plenty. After you have a few thousand miles on the hot seat, you MAY want more power. On one hand, it may be better getting a lower horsepower number, and wanting to get more in the future, than to get TOO MUCH at the beginning, not feel comfortable with that power, and not enjoying the Cobra experience. Cracker and Avanti-176 both have valid points.

What kind of a driver are you, and what do you want the car to do?
