Found a cobra.

hmmmm, smaller pulley huh? have you driven it at all? I would look it over real good if it has a smaller pulley on it and take it for a ride. If the pulley is smaller than a 3.1 then i would make sure the dealership didn't flash it back to stock. But if all checks out 20-21K for a cobra sounds sweet. Specially buy it before the weather gets nice or you can add another $1000-$1500 to the price.

i owe a lot on my car. how badly would my roll over be if i were to do the same thing? i owe 30k on my car and stealerships only book it at just under 20. id be paying a 10k roll over?

 

[SICKBOY]

man.. guess east coast cars get given away...that sounds like a solid price before your low balling...Thats a pretty dumb deal at 22k on the west coast

 

[99stanger]

Well I found out why the price was so "solid" it had 7 owners 1 of which had the car for only 60 days another for only 8 months!!!! It was also in an accident with "under carriage" damage reported. So needless to say..... I did NOT find my cobra.

Mach's are beautiful in their own right and are very formidable force with very light modding to them. Plus you can pick them up for a pretty good bargain too.

I don't see them much cheaper than a used 03 term :shrug:


I agree, I like the mach's but not worth the money if you can pick up a term for 20k

Most of the termie's around here are like 24-25,000. I'd rather get a Mach 1 (without IRS) which I've seen as low as 17,000 and dump 5-6000 into that!!

I was searching craigslist today and came upon this if the OP is interested.

the problem with Mach's is they dont have the forged motor, and the high compression makes it tricky to add forced induction to.

Terminator is definitly the better car

James, nice find..mineral gray is an extremely rare color for the 03/04 cobra's

Thanks. Is there any way of finding out if its a private sale? Do dealerships even post cars on craigslist?

 

[massmustang02]

Wish I was still in the market because the car is basically setup how I want mine. And it's one of my favorite mustang colors. And the MG's are definitely rare Ian.

Shoot them an email to see what's up. I would ask for pics before I went any further. And yes, dealer's do post on craigslist.

 

[Dynotune04]

mg's are also all early builds. just something to keep in mind.

It wasn't about your word choice and there is no reason to apologize, I just said that because it was a solid price.... but in the end it turned out to be lemon that was selling for a good price had the car been in good shape.

Almost any cobra has the possibility of developing a head tick. 03 or 04. Cooling mods help protect against the problem.

I still havent figured out why the 03/04 C heads have these issues. The other C headed engines don't seem to have this tick issue. All other C headed vehicles come with no cooling provisions in the rear of the heads. So why would the cooling mod protect against the tick?

Someone's gotta ride dirty!
I would like to see some pics of this car.

 

[99stanger]

I have spoken with the owner, its not a bad looking terminator. Although it has the rear window louver's and "terminator" stickers on the side of the car.
