03/04 Cobra owners

How many of you have one as a daily driver? I'm just wondering about the reliability because I drive 3000 miles a month. Do you feel this would be excessive and would lead to problems? I'm thinking of getting one next summer if the 05's are not to my liking.

Mine's a daily. No probs (2000mi/month).

How many total miles so far? I'm still torn between the Cobra and the Mach I. Is the warrenty 3/36? If I get one I will probably extend it.

Mines a daily driver, but 3,000 miles per month is alot.. AS long as you maintain the car it should be fine... I was torn between the mach and cobra also... Hard hard decision

I got mine in September 2002, and hit 30K this past weekend. I've had no problems at all. I do have the tick, but I've been holding off on the repair until they get it right. I'll have to do something in the next couple of months, though so I don't blow past the warranty.

I've never had a car that I've enjoyed as much as this.

I may not have that that kinda mileage, but I got the extra warranty just in case.

I will probably break down and get it as well before the 36K mark. I've not spent the money on any other cars up to this point, but if something goes wrong on this baby it gonna be REAL expensive.

I drive mine everyday.... miles are pretty low though

Ehh, I worry about driving mine everyday.. I figure I put on about 1300 miles every month.. Going on month number 2 here pretty soon.. got it with 1500 miles (11/08/03), now I'm at 3600.. Gas mileage is okay sometimes, but on the street it's a much different story.. that's fine though, it's fun to drive. I say if you're worried, get an extended warranty, could never hurt. If not, just wait.. the 05s will be here late next year. save your money and put a nice down payment on one? just my 2 cents, best of luck!
