New owner in Ohio

[MikeInOH]

I always loved the history, the lines and rawness of the cobra since I was a kid and finally bought one last year. It took me a couple years of looking but last fall I finally found the right one, a 2003 superformance with a very healthy 351w. Its in the neighborhood of 450+hp, 5spd tremec, ultra clean...I think the previous owner might have been almost as anal as I am.

Last fall, I got about 500 miles on it before I had to put it away for the winter. This weather is insane...it was 61deg here in Ohio yesterday so I had it out for over an hour with my kids. Man that felt great after a few months of looking at it just sitting there in the garage.

The new cobra shares the garage with my other toy. Its my autocross/track day car that I have been building for way too long. All that is left is some wiring at this point. Its a '91 Civic hatch and I swapped an '01 Integra Type R motor/trans in it. Barely 2000lb with about 220hp. Its fully gutted, no dash, race seats, nascar style cage, big brakes, suspension work, race tires. Maybe not many Honda fans here but its another car I always had a thing for...its like a really angry go kart.

I must say I have spent many many hours on this forum reading posts and it is such a great resource and awesome group of people. Keep it up! Looking forward to meeting some of the local ohio guys.
