So I am showing my buddy my new car, an 04 Mystichrome, and just cruisin around on this small four lane road. I made a right onto another street and low and behold a Camaro SS in front of me. He slows (almost stops) and waits for me. I wasnt even wanting to mess, just showing my car. Well, he beeps and punches it. Sounded awful, like it didnt have any exhaust (so loud). I just let him go, then he stops and waits on me, so I decided to play. We went from a 35mph roll, and at 125 I had about 3 car lengths on him. At the nxt stop light he does this burnout and acted all pissed off at me. I didnt understand, he asked for it, TWICE, and yet he is mad at me and screamin he wants my car from a "Dig" Funny stuff, but sure as hell made me smile. Oh yea, I am new to this forum and this is my first post. And this is my first Terminator, these things are awesome machines. Just thought I would share
Yea, I did smile and as he pulled up beside me, I said "damn that thing is loud as hell, do you even have an exhaust on it" he says, "no, just cats, was putting a fuel pump in and changing the exhaust and the welder messed up" Thats when he stated screamin about a "dig" and all that mess. I just smiled and said "you seen what she's got, I think once is enough." As far as the car, it has a 3.00 pulley, CAI, High flow cats, and a Magaflow exhaust, with a tune. Then lowering springs, short throw shifter. I have only had the car ten days......so I am still learning about this beast.

Did you get that Mystic from a guy in Lexington? There was one on ebay a couple months ago that sounded like it had some mods like yours. I talked to the guy, and at the time, he said he had a buyer. As I recall, he was asking 25k for it.
I got the car from a guy in Appomattox, Va. If any of you are familiar with Hi-end Auto. Thats where I got the car. You guys should check out his website Hi End Autos LLC, find your Mustang Cobra here. He has like 15 Terminators. He was real good and honest to deal with. I dont know if this is the one on E-bay or not. My car has 32K miles on it. It could be the same one. I am near the Richmond area.

Congrats on the car. Mystichromes are beautiful. I know several people from this forum have purchased their Cobras from Hi-End.
Why didn't you beat on him from a dig and go for the trifecta?
Nice kill!
I agree as it's not much a win if you don't go from a dig

IMO you don't seem to confident about your car or you would have taken him from a dig

Some people always have to rain on the parade dont they?
Anyway, Congrats on your car. I just got mine yesterday. Its 03 with a KB 2.6. Nasty fast. I wish mine was a Mysti cause those just look so good, and they look even better in person. Your right, Robert and his wife are terrific people and he is very honest. He tells you alot about the car (if he knows about the car) and if anythigns wrong he will make it right or negotiate price. I couldnt resist cause he gave ame a deal on my trade in. Congrats again, I too am a first time Termi owner. Several Cobras and a Saleen but this is my first 03 Cobra. Super Stoked for both of us!
Wow, amazing how the people who own GM cars tell me nice kill, but some of the Ford owners want to say "IMO you don't seem to confident about your car or you would havetaken him from a dig" or "I agree as it's not much a win if you don't go from a dig." Man, didnt realize that pulling away from someone like I did, didnt qualify for anything. Hahaha, ok I guess I will have to learn "racing ettiquette" And I promise you that I am confident in my car, that would be the problem..........any of your friends get arrested for going tooooo fast? Thats why I didnt go from a "DIG" Push your luck once, ok, push it twice and it might push back. As far as Robert and his wife, they are great and I am trying to get two people I know to buy cars from him and possibly a 3rd. 10-43 This 03, which one did you end up buying?
