[QUOTE="TFStang, post: 15714213, member: 72692"] Great story. The last R (as in not the current 00R) that I had, I originally spotted at a car show in 2000. The guy was real snippy and wouldn't let anyone near his car and when asked questions, gave snide replies as in "why are you asking me questions" type of replies. Not very friendly. Although I did love the car and the sound of the Bassani exhaust he put on it. Flash forward 13 years to 2013....I see a local Craigslist ad for a 2000 Cobra R with 4K miles and it was literally right in my back yard (neighboring town). I call on it and make arrangements to see the car. I pull up to the house and who comes out to greet me?!!! You guessed it! That same guy I met at the car show 13 years earlier!!! This time he was pretty nice. I assume because he wanted to sell the car. The car was just as nice as I remembered it. He was the original owner, so he had all the paperwork and items that the car came with. He actually took very good care of the car. It was a real nice one with no bubbles on the hood or paint work t speak of. Needless to day, I bought the car. Who would have thought when I encountered that guy at the local car show 13 years earlier that I would one day be buying his prized 00R. Crazy how things happen sometimes. [/QUOTE]
