Last week I was on a business trip to LA. A local Ford dealer had an unusual find in his lot. It was a '97 Rio Red Cobra coupe...bone stock...with less than 25K miles on the clock. I could not resist the temptation to drive the car.
Although the car was probably the nicest low mileage Cobra I had ever driven, the driving experience was less than thrilling. It's amazing how different these cars become with a supercharger, gears, exhaust and suspension work!
The dealer was asking under 14 and they REALLY wanted to deal. I resisted for fear of my wife chopping off my head with another car purchase. Now if the car was a Mystic...well that would have been a different outcome!
