guys cracking me up, talking about selling and buying a another one. All the blood, sweat, tears, more tears, and money in theses cars. Owned mine for 8-9 years and pretty much have all the bugs worked out. I'd go to the looney bin starting over. I couldn't sell mine even if someone offered 50-60k for it.

I am assuming the attention pertains to the performance of your Terminator. When I’m out in my Teal 93, no one is trying to race me or yelling for me to hammer on it. They just smile, wave and give a thumbs-up. I can spot Mustang fans when out in my 93... they get jazzed-up seeing a 93 Cobra out-and-about.

My 93 had a decent amount of mods (347, S-trim, T-56, ect) but only a few people notice it. That car had a lot of issues and after fixing them I no longer wanted the car. My 93 ruined fox cars for me which sucks because the teal 93 cobra was my high school dream car. The 03/04 cobra is the perfect toy car (IMO) and see no reason to own another fox again.

Even my co-workers like the looks of my 03 better than my 93. Like is said, I don't understand it. I wasn't even looking for an OW car but once I took delivery (brought site unseen) that color really grew on me. Now its one of my favorite colors.

If someone walked up to me with 28K I'd sell it on the spot. The next day i would be plastering WTB MC Coupe adds all across the interwebs.

In all honesty if someone offered me anything over 30k I'd have a hard time saying no. The only thing that would really stop me is that I'd end up with another one and have to start over. I've had that happen as well. I go to a meet around here once in awhile that's mostly imports. People always freak out when I pull in. I've drawn stares from people standing by GTR's. And it was dark and people couldn't see the paint very well either.

We have this newer spot in dt Orlando that does different car meets and events almost every day. I drove through the parking lot during a "Nissan Meet" the other day and kept hearing guys say "Terminator?", or "Oh shit I think that's a Terminator!".

Was surprised that Nissan fanboy's knew what these cars were, because I honestly couldn't pick out a specialty Nissan to save my life.

I think this is one of the very few cars that bridges the import/domestic gap. People like or respect Terminators, regardless of their overall opinions on Mustangs or domestics...

I've noticed this too. On the ride home from buying my first one, I found a Honda S2K with a front mount intercooler. I tried to line up with him, and at the light he looks over and goes 'no way, I'll run any mustang, but if it says COBRA on the back, i'm not interested'

I can respect that.

If I had to put a price on mine, I would let it go for $32k. That's if someone cam along and was like "I have to have it". I don't plan on listing it for sale or anything for now, as I love the car, and have always wanted one since they were new. Now it's modded and just how I want it. But I really have the itch for a '12/'13/'14 GT500. We are building a house and have another we are renting for now, so when that is said and done I will probably move on and find my perfect Shelby.

It looks like my number is also $32k. If I actually got that for mine I'd be bugging Comp04svt that same day. In reality I'd probably let it go for $26k but that money would be going right back into another one probably CO next time.

Thats pretty much the reaction I get. The first time it happened I thought they were messing around. Then after we parked my son told me everyone was looking as I drove by.

I'm to the point that if someone showed up to my house with any amount of money I'd take it.

I cant give this car away it seems.

If someone dropped $32k in my hand they would get the car, title, plus the extra and original parts I have for it.

This is due to the time the car was released. 2002 (when the 03 cobra was first being sold) was right after the release of the original Fast N Furious.

The import scene went absolutely bonkers when the factory blown Cobra came out. I remember it well.

‘03 OW ‘vert with saddle top. Got it from original owner in Feb ‘04 for what he had left on the note (27K). He was getting divorced and had to divest himself of his toys. Had 2100 miles on it. Hadn’t even done first oil change yet. First week I had it one of the hot chicks at work said it needed a name. When I asked for suggestions her answer was “Marilyn “. That stuck.

Its probably one of the last unmodded ones out there. Only has Diablo predator chip. Got 70K well-maintained miles on it. Interior still smells/looks like new. NO drinks or food in it EVER. Friend tried to get in with a cup of coffee once and I told him he had three options; dump it, chug it or walk. Got a Focus for fast food runs.

Everywhere I take it someone wants to buy it. Sorry guys! Everything has a price but this one’s so high you don’t even wanna ask.

I'd sell for $30K. I know mine is not in tip top condition with a few minor mechanical issues and less than stellar paint - so as is I would need at least $25K.

Mine is still on stock tune and stock pulley and all. Intake and exhaust have been the only performance mods. Everything else has been to make the car stronger or look better.
