The Super Snake is the best of all worlds for me - it's faster than I'll ever need it to be, and it brings people joy when they see it since there's not that many around.

Honestly, if you're looking for that same kind of feeling, a Cobra would be a good fit. They're plenty fast for the street, but also command attention when they're clean and in good shape. The only downside is that they make every mechanical noise known to man sometimes 😅
yeah the super snakes are fast as hell my dream is a 2013 or 2014 GT500 super snake with the hole shot package and NO wide body. and god knows they will smoke the hell out the new gt500 or any dodge demon and anything else other then a damn cobra jet. their the ultimate mustang in my opinion. my buddy josh has a 08 gt500 super snake and it makes 1003 whp and the pulls are so damn violent it feels like somthin you would ride out the gates of hell in i mean its ungodly how fast and loud and menacing and violent it is its like it shakes your fucking soul

Hell no - I had 2. Terrible ergonomics, hard to find parts, a car whose frame dates back to the Ford Fairmont. They are better to look at than drive.

Plus a more archaic IRS, No Tech, small brakes, cheap interior

I loved mine, still do. but the S550 PP1 is better

I prefer my '15 to any S197 GT500, let alone a Terminator. That's saying quite a bit, but the S550 is a much better car overall.

I wouldn't trade my '21 GT for a 20-year-old Cobra on a bet. No way. Not only is the Termi a LOT slower, but it doesn't handle or stop nearly as well, it rides worse, it's less comfortable and . . . it's an OLD car. It's going to be worn out, beaten down and broken. A Termi as a weekend garage queen? Maybe. But as a trade for a new S550? That's just insanity.

I'm fortunate to have both, and love them both for variety of reasons. But if I had to choose one as my only transportation for all occasions it would be the S550. The overall ride, performance, comfort and reliability outweigh the nostalgia and feel of the Terminator.

Compared to the new Gen 3, the Terminator is antiquated, lack of luster, nothing really special except for the word "Terminator". Sorry, I just don't see it. But if that's what you want, go for it, you only live once as they say.
Same is true for all the muscle cars of yesteryears, Slower, handle like crap, not nice to drive by any means. Yet people absolutely love them and spend 10X more restoring them than what they were new.

No I mean how did that guy beat terminators with an srt-4 regularly? Must have been a decent build. Termi typically puts down 400 to the wheels so its not exactly slow 🤔

My car was similar to the one that this guy owns in my building. Big turbo pushing 32psi to 550 hp. Unfortunately I don’t have any pics of mine because I’m really not a picture guy. I don’t even have a lot of the mustang. I am taking more pictures as I get older.
