After 6+ years of happy ownership and several fun projects, the time has come to pursue other hobbies and sell my terminator.

First and foremost, my asking price is $23,000 - OBO. I have the title, clean and clear in my possession. No Trades Please!

2003 Mineral Gray Cobra Coupe - One of only 302 in this combination!
#634 Born on 6/17/2002 - I have replicas of the SVT certificate and window sticker.

The car has just less than 55,000 miles, runs and drives very well, and has thrilling seat-of-pants feel with an intimidating exhaust note when you open her up. I performed all the work on the car myself (I’m the only one I can trust in that regard) and can therefore vouch for the car. Every project was performed with the level of care and detail only the owner would put into it.

Anyway, I would first like to talk about the flaws on the car as it does have a few minor cosmetic issues. There are 2 larger paint chips (one on the hood, the other on the rear bumper cover), the driver seat side bolster is showing some age (it is 13 years old, after all) and the exhaust pipes do have some surface rust, but nothing that would affect structural integrity of the tube or cause leaks.

Due to these issues, I am more than willing to negotiate on price!

Now to the good stuff! Below is a list of the upgrades on the car. Everything I did was in an attempt to improve power and driver experience and make the car better than it was from the factory.

You bet - The one on the bumper is drivers side lower valence right behind the rear tire. Its harder to notice. I used some detailer to shine it up and make it more visible in the photo.

Below is the dyno chart from the whipple install. This was he 7th pull inside of an hour or two and it was very hot, high 90's in the shop. the tech said it was pulling a lot of timing at that point. also that is before the long tube headers and off road x pipe went on. just never went back to get fresh numbers.
