Coolest most beautiful cobra I've ever seen. I kick myself in the butt sometimes for building my vortech 98 cobra and instead should of just got one of these. Again that's the coolest car I've ever seen.Hi
I'm selling my 2003 Cobra
$35,000
45k mi
Black
Clean title
CA car - no rust/no corrosion
No stories / nothing hidden
I've owned it since 11/2018
I'm selling because the drag strip here is closing, and I have bought something more street-oriented
I'm listing it on national forums as it will not pass CA emissions
I'm in Sacramento CA
Start-up video from today 8/15/23
The car has a charging issue
It has a Nation's alternator/external voltage regulator, which I shipped to them 12/22
It came back with a clean bill of health
The car starts first crank, every time, with voltage 14.6-14.8
After about 15mins of starting, the voltage drops to ~11.9
I have a stock alternator in a box that I'm going to swap out if I get the time, trying to diagnose the issue
I have so little free time to work on the car - I'd like to sell it diagnosed/fixed, but I'm willing to take a few thousand off of asking price if I don't have the time to get it done
I purchased the car through AED, who did most of the work

Happy to have anyone local look at/vouch for the car in the event the buyer is out of state
I can help arrange for transport though I've never shipped a car before
It's hard to let this go. It's fast, it's fun, it's a great street/strip car with AC/heat. I may regret it, but realistically between wife/three young kids/stressful job I feel it's the right decision to make
Thanks - feel free to shoot me whatever questions you may have
