Selling my 2003 Sonic Blue cobra asking $20k (recently reduced!). It currently has right at 78,000 on the clock. Fresh oil and new plugs as of 600miles ago and all new fluids(trans, rad, intercooler, brake, diff) less than 3,000. Last dyno was +3yrs ago just before I picked it up, made 605rwhp 595rwtq. That was before everything I've done to it(same# boost though) so I can not tell you EXACTLY how much it makes right now. Car is currently a daily but has always been garaged even at work. Last tune was by Eric Brooks, has 93pump gas and a 100+oct tune which I've never even used lol.. have pretty much babied the car the entire time I've had it. In fact I put in the N2MB wot box over a year ago and haven't even programmed it so she falls flat on her face around 5,000rpm. there are a few issues though: needs rear tires and brakes very soon. If I get time before it sells, I'll put brakes on. Other issue is that it has a parasitic battery draw. Basically, if it's not driven every few days, the batter will drain. I have tracked it to the fuse(instrument cluster/trac control) but haven't gone any further to correct the problem. I simply do not have the time....Otherwise the car is 10yrs old and very well maintained.

Located Ringgold, Ga....about 10 mins from Chattanooga, TN.

I'll be interested to see how this car does. I have a very similar car, with same mileage, not as many mods but a clean whippled SB car and I'm thinking of selling it.

Keep in mind that these photos were not taking immediately after a wash/detail. There's some grime from the road...so the little things your seeing are NOT rock chips or any paint damage, just some good ole fashioned GA water spots and dirt. :rockon:
