Hi fellas I found a 2003 cobra 10th anniversary with 147000 on the clock, the seller wants 14500 for it and I'm not sure if that's the going rate on these now a days with that many miles on it. He's the second owner and has only had it since June of 2011. I pulled up the carfax and all is good with no accidents, he bought it with 134000 on it from a dealer it looks like, because it said on the carfax it was in a auto auction in 03/2011 so I'm guessing the previous owner traded it in. I haven't seen it yet but plan on going this weekend. This is what he posted in his add.
"the car is stock except for a magnaflow x pipe, magna packs and a jlt cold air intake
the car put down 352tq and 393 hp on the dyno with 11lbs of boost a few months back i have the dyno sheet to show what it did
I also have the certificate and 10th anniversay floor mats with it
recently replaced all the pulleys,tensioners, the belts, new alternator, thermostat, waterpump, oil cooler gasket, one of the tensioners wents i just decided to do all that while i was in there
it has a pioneer double din with navagation
the car is very very clean and runs strong
the car has always been garaged since i have owned it"

I know from reading on here that the number one thing to do is a compression test and listening for the the head "tick", does $14500 sound fair for it? I haven't talked about a price with him yet and I'm not sure if he's even willing to budge on his asking price. I normally don't talk about price over the phone until I looked at a car anyways.... sorry for the long first post on here but I would appreciate any help or info you guys may have. thanks.
