An aquaintance of mine want's to sell his '03 Cobra. Excellent cond. 11,000 miles, pulley, headers, CAI, exhaust, plasma. Said before CAI, dynoed at 439 HP. Wants $30,000. Probably will go down. Good deal?

price is high and hp is low for those mods
Price it outrageous and hp is way off.......I say research a little more man..
It's not outrageous...unfortunately for him, most dealers are selling brand new for that price...I'd say he'd be lucky to get $26k...those power numbers are probably right too....i bet he gained 11rwhp easily with the CAI which would put him at 450rwhp...good luck
If someone offered him 25k He should take it. Last week a buddy bought a 9K for 25K and another friend a few months ago go a 7800 mile for 23.5K.
It's a min grey coupe with standard wheels.
I would just note that most guys saying 25k is good are from the East. Welcome to California, where the average home price is over 300k and low income is considered 100k in some parts of L.A. and S.F.
Now, is 30k outrageous? Its all about the market. I personally would not buy am 03 outside of California and bring it in, unless it was stored winters. In San Diego, California, he will probably get close to 30k.
Moreover, I have bought two Cobras off of lots. You cant get a clean 03 in California for less than 27 with 11k. But I would estimate that 28 should be about right.

That describes the area around here. I bought my car out of the south for 24K with 7K on it, I pick it up in the next few weeks.
I don't see why anyone would pay 30K when dealers were blowing out NEW 04s for less than that. :shrug: :shrug:
