Sad Day, anyone else remember when they sold their Cobra?

[SlowLNF]

Well, I said good bye to my 04 Cobra today. Fortunately I know the new owner and I know he will take good care of her. I didn't get as much as I would have liked to, or as much as the car's worth, but I found a vehicle that fits me and I need to get into it before it's sold.

I bought the car bone stock, and dumped a lot of time, money, sweat, and blood into her. I'll miss this car more then any I've had before.

Does anyone else remember when they sold their Cobra?

LAME.... but honestly sorry to hear you had to sell it.

 

[timspony]

....Sorry to hear!!! Best of luck!

I remember how tough it was to sell my '03 Cobra but, I, too, found a buyer I knew would take good care of it. So that made parting with my baby a tad easier. Funny, you swapped to a truck and I swapped to an SUV (sold last year). Best of luck with your Dodge pickup.

I felt bad when I bought it from the owner that owned mine. 81 year old n original owner. All he asked for was a last ride in it. He got to a point where he couldnt even drive it or get in it.

i traded a 99v6 for a 98 firebird and felt guilty for 2 weeks. felt like i just got dumped by a girl i loved. plus i realized the 99v6 was in better shape than the firebird.

I'm sure the feeling sucks but its not as bad as when they stole first 03 in Oct of 04. I knew the car was coming out and didnt have $35K to spend so I bought an 01 Cobra. Just for kicks I test drove the 03 and was in loveepper: I bought it new and it had 8k miles on it when it was stolen and striped.:nonono: I still get sad every time I think about it. I like my current Cobra but I'm not attached to it...

I miss my old 04 every moment of the day lol I sold it for more then what I paid for it to a car lot then some chop shop guy came to the lot gave the owner a cashiers check that was fake an took the car now its prolly all over the world

One of the hardest, off days of my life. It was odd to watch a "kid" drive away in something that I put so much time into.

Cool part for me is that we still keep in touch and I see it every once in awhile. I actually saw it two nights ago while getting off the freeway, so naturally I gave chase :burnout: I came up on him pretty quickly and did a little fly by and slowed down. Next thing I know, my car starts vibrating and I hear that familiar whine! I miss "my" car :nonono:

I remember when i sold my 97 Kenne Bell cobra..He asked me if i wanted to drive it to his house, he is a local guy..i said no bc i'd keep going lol...I used to see it around town every now and then...haven't seen it in a while, turns out he blew the motor...Ouchy

 

[zeusha]

at least you got to sell it lol. I had a 98 cobra before my 03 and I totaled it. I had a TON into that car. But was just as sad to see them take it, except on a flatbed lol

 

[tgasTT]

I just sold my 03 (3069miles on it) yesterday, don't feel too bad, I've come to realize that it's just a car I wasn't really that attached to...unlike my fox.

 

[CobraBob]

Wow, only 3K miles on it. I can understand how you weren't too attached to it. That works out to less than 500 miles a year. Did you get a good price for it?

No joke.How did he even know what it was really like?

 

[SVTDice]

Man, I would be heart broken if I ever had to sell mine. Hopefully that day never comes.
