Been there done that

Not too sure if he's disclosing them to serious buyers or not. He's a good guy and he was upfront with me about them at least and I don't see why he wouldn't to others

Thank you! Don't go drive one or else you'll be buying. It's hard to deny the out of the box performance this car offers. They're amazing machines

Thanks again everyone. The guy with the low mile DSG couldn't let the car go. So I kept looking and this fell into my lap. 2 owners and stock besides fixed heads by AHP and 1 7/8" LT's. I know it's not a cobra but this car has been an absolute blast. My last Z06 really have me a hard time...

came across a clean 2003 DSG car with 31k miles that’s barely modded for $25k that i think i am pursuing. thanks for the insights

Is this still FS?

Yep and I have a feeling that car would have left some wounds if it turned out to be head gaskets May 11th 2005 was my join date on my original account. Been around for a little bit. DrZacharyus if it rings a bell

You’re not wrong about that

It’s a nice car outside of this but it does need love. I feel like it’s a buy in the 22-23k range with the love it needs. Wish I had more pictures but I do not

Considering buying this cobra that my friend owns. It’s a 2003 3 owner satin silver 16759 miles no accidents. He’s had it 4ish years now and the car is SBE, Hellion single, built t56, Ford 9”, fuel system on e85 with ID’s, and a cage. To me I know the car has bad welds for the cage and torque...
