Just wanted to share the new car. Picked up from a used car lot. Owners MIL has had it for the last 20 years. She's 80 years old and bought it with 11,000 miles on July 1st 1997 from a local dealer here in St. Louis. I picked up the vehicle with 72,000 original miles on it a week ago. It's a bone stock car and it drives extremely well and the AC still blows penguins. Fiance and I just got back from a 900 mile trip to Chicago and back and the car drove great the entire way there and back. Really planning on leaving it stock for a while other than putting some decent mid pipe and catback on it. Looking forward to being part of the SVT family!

I need to go over the whole car and do some mild paint correction to bring the shine back.

Thanks for looking!

Nice car and great find. It can't be bone stock with that stance. What kind of springs does it have?

Very nice! I grew up a couple hours from St Louis and had a friend in high school who had an aunt with a red '95 Cobra, and now I think about it she might have been in the St Louis area. Makes me wonder if that's her car! I never met her or saw the car, but if that's it I lusted after your car so badly just hearing him talk about it back then. Lol

Good idea to keep if fairly stock. There are plenty of reversible modifications you can do that really add to the experience - exhaust and suspension particularly. I'd keep those wheels, spoiler, and rest of body as-is though...looks great!

Ah, looks just like mine did about a year and a half ago! I'm super partial to the 94-95 Cobra. Enjoy it my friend - when you find yourself looking for some power (and you will) I'd recommend slapping a Vortech on her. Huge game changer haha.

Looks great man, +1 for the original crowd. I bet we could count on our hands how many original 94-95 Cobras are left nowadays.

Welcome! Nice looking car what was the sticker price?

Ended up getting it for $8000.

I'm fairly certain it is. Unless the first owner installed springs on his own because I know for a fact some 80 year old woman isn't going to, heh. I guess I'll try to take a peek to see if they might be different.

Thanks for the kind words guys. Hopefully there's some meets coming up in the Midwest would like to get back out there!
