Your thoughts on this Cobra

This is pretty close to me.

Need way more details. Higher mileage, low price for that color and limited pictures.

super clean paint with aftermarket headlights and high miles being sold at a dealer. to me that seems like it might have been wrecked and resprayed. the back seats have alot or wrinkles which you dont see often. it looks real clean, but i wonder why its so cheap. i would definitely look it over very well

For 112k miles, the front bumper is flawless. I'm not sure if the photos have been Photoshopped or the car has new paint, which would be unusual for Mystichrome. There is also more blue-blue tone than normally shows up on Mystichrome, although it could be the white light and white room.

It's definitely was a Mystichrome car with the interior, although possibly resprayed exterior.

The rear seat leather is concerning. Water damage?

I've never seen this much blue in any lighting condition with my car. Original owner Mystichrome:

Ya it's almost certainly been repainted....but I'll tell you this, looks like a hell of a job! The back seat wrinkles are weird, too....

If it drives good, and the motor passed a compression test, title clean, etc.....that would be a heck of a car for 17 range

I was thinking the same thing about the rear seats. I'm not going to lie, it would be nice to have an 04 mystic.

I think they did something with the photos. That or they coated the entire car in KY lube. Every picture is just so glossy looking.
Only way to know is to go see it in person and dig through all the lies the dealer is going to tell you.

The body looks very clean. I would ask for a compression test and under side pictures before purchase

Almost has to be a repaint, but it looks good. My 40k mile mystichrome doesn't look that good and mine has the cleanest paint I've seen in person for one with any miles on it.

The lighting might play a part in it. I noticed the other cars they're selling also have that deep, wet look to them.

Went to cosmo last year to check it out. They edit their photos very heavily, so I'd DEFINITELY go check out the car in person. The place normally has some nicely modified stuff, but the salesmen dont know dick about them, was told the incorrect blower type & size on two different units, corrected the salesman both times when I was looking at the car. Typical salesman

I've been looking eyeballing that car as well. I'm very tempted.

I say go look at it. The price might be KBB based on it being a dealership. They are probably selling on listed value instead of enthusiast value. Everyone here values these cars based on modifications and color. I don't think KBB and NADA takes those factors into consideration.

I just checked KBB and a 2004 Cobra with 112K miles is listed for $16,800.
NADA listed it for $16,875

Same dealership I bought mine at. Not going into detail, but I would never buy again from them.

 

[COOL COBRA]

If you're close, go check it out.
They may or may not know the real history of the car.
One thing tho, they have a heck of a photographer.

Good to know!

 

[RichM1983]

Beavis I'm interested in the car could you PM your experience? I won't share it with anyone without your permission.

Thanks

Looks like those pictures were photoshop'd or a that room has a awesome effect on the paint. The MC paint can look rather blue in the right light. Here is a picture of mine the day I picked it up.

 

[rymax101]

I'd buy it if I didn't already have one in the garage

I'm considering trading my black Cobra. So tempted.
