Stock vs stock the win goes to the cobra. The newer LS2 goat will be a better race but the cobra should still edge it out. But once the mods start going on, it could go either way. The gto run good but, I personally stink they look like crap. They look to much like a cavalier on roids.

This subject seems familiar, anyway, An 03/04 cobra has the advantage stock vs stock (LS1 or LS2).

I recently had to make the decision between the 2 cars myself.
After test driving both cars, I chose the Cobra, Im happy with it.
Quarter mile times (stock) are
Cobra: 12.8 sec 0-60: 4.5 sec
GTO (LS2): 13.3 sec 0-60: 4.9 sec

Also the Cobras get more horsepower for less money when it comes to mods. An upper pulley, Exhaust, CAI, and a tune= 500 horses.

The cobra will perform much better on cornering as well.

My Cobra is only a 94 with a Vortech S/C and I smoked a new GTO pretty bad about a month ago.
