Does anyone know what company makes this intake? I’m guessing the filter is a blue AirAid.

Nobody can accuse you of not doing your homework on the cars in which you're interested! FWIW, I don't blame you for having a little skeptcism regarding the number of owners and complaints to FoMoCo. That said, the facts that there don't appear to have been any major problems and that the car is still covered by a Ford warranty both mitigate those concerns. Also, the Ford guys are right, in that many owners of this type car move in and out of them every couple of years, when the next new and shiny one comes along. Talking with previous owner(s) is usually a good idea, but not always easy to do. Your wife has good taste - DIB is a great color that is more complementary to your Cobra's Mystichrome.I saw that this morning. USAA sent it to me. The only issue I have is that the carfax shows 3 owners? Why did so many people go through that car in such a short time?
1st owner, in NY, 2 years 9 months. Bought 5/13, first oil change at 3/14 w/762 miles, next oil change 3/15 w/1498 miles, next oil change at 3/16 w/1889 miles and then sold on 4/16 with 1903 miles
2nd owner, bought it from NY at 9/16 with 2010 miles and took it to GA. Another oil change at 1/17 w/3838 miles. Sold it on 1/17 w/3840 miles. He only had it for 4 months and put on 1830 miles. New York to GA is about 930 miles so they really only put 900 miles in 4 months and got rid of the car.
Last owner bought it from GA and took it to MD. GA to MD is about 721 miles. He owned since 3/3/17 with 3909 miles. Another oil change on 9/17 w/4997 miles and he did a final service on 4/18 at 5301 miles. After that, the car shows up for sale at Toyota with 6222 miles on 10/19
Now, I had an OASIS run at the dealership. On the 3/2015 oil change with the first owner, there was some work done on it that was put under a P11 code at the service department. It was explained to me that code is used when FoMoCo pays for service on the car. They couldn't find the work but I was told that the windshield was replaced for stress cracks within the 12 months/12K miles warranty. That might have been it.
It also had 2 complaints to FoMoCo by the first owner and the last owner has an open complaint. They couldn't see what the complaints were.
The car has had regular service at the Ford Dealerships in every state and it's fully optioned out. It has everything, PP/TP/Recaros, EP/Nav/Shaker/Glass roof. It's a DIB with white stripes.
The guys at the Ford dealership said to stop stressing about the history of the car. There is nothing major showing up and the owners could just be people who got on the next best thing.
I see 3 mods, some non-factory intake tube, a blue engine filter and hood struts.
I see a Ford PremiumCare warranty with roadside until 3/2020
I'm trying to track down the last owner to see if he had any issues or why he got rid of it.
My wife likes it better than Grabber since it's a more subdued color and it matches the Mystichrome better than the Grabber.
That's a (now discontinued) Ford Racing Resonator Delete, that doesn't require a tune to run. (Pretty sure the P/N was M-9B659-MSVT.) I ran JLT's (also discontinued) CF version before upgrading to their 127mm CF and a tune, so I can't speak to the specifics of Ford's, but a lot of guys ran/run them. @tomshep's thread on his is located at https://www.svtperformance.com/threads/ford-racing-resonator-delete-install-w-pics.987853/.View attachment 1605160

Did you buy the car? I do not see it listed now at the Dealership.He still had the old exhaust, resonator and hood prop. He can ship them to me. What do you guys rethink I should offer him for the stock stuff?

See what he wants for it. If it were me, I'd have no use for them, if I no longer owned the car. I have all my old parts and intend to let them go with the car, if I ever get to that point.He still had the old exhaust, resonator and hood prop. He can ship them to me.

This. If I'm the old owner, I wouldn't charge anything but the shipping fees. Why hang onto the parts.See what he wants for it. If it were me, I'd have no use for them, if I no longer owned the car. I have all my old parts and intend to let them go with the car, if I ever get to that point.
Good luck with it, oh ya, nice color !
