Sell the Cobra, and, if you can, don't look back; doing so will only bring a tear to your eye.

Wise a$$.

To the OP:

I love the GT500. Huge power and great performance in comfort. However, I agree that in 10 years, no even a few years it will be last years model except there is a school of thought that it will be the last of the big V8s for the Stang, but then again there are just too many of them. At least 7000 built per year.

If you want a truly special Mustang for less money right now IMHO the Mustang to buy is a GT500KR. Last of the pre-title Shelbys built at SAI. You will have one of 1600 made. Period and damn near the performance of the '14. It was ahead of it's time performance wise and the bench mark for the '10 - '12 GT500s. If you can find a Red or Blue KR you will have 1 of 200 made. The KR is a special Stang and considered one of the nicest looking Stangs ever made. I love mine. IMHO it will appreciate in value and increase in desirability. They once sold for over $100K at nearly $25K over sticker.

Between, the standard GT500 and the SPF. I'm biased.
Point is the Cobra is more of Special occasion car and will always make you smile as much today as it will years from now and isn't that the end game?
