Based on what I have seen in the market lately you should probably list it at $30k.

Seriously though, I would guess it would be in the $14-17k range depending on how fast you want to sell it.

:D They have been going a little crazy lately, i got flamed for calling out 2v guys on listing their cars for 10-15k, what is going on in the community??

Just curious, any reason to buy another one with lower mileage?
Color a factor in that?

Just asking cause it seems like you drive it often, and they are all out of warranty at this day and age. I would just continue rocking it.


But as to your question ~15-17k would be my uneducated guess.

Just a quick, cheap tip: You could increase the look a lot by replacing those headlights (they're cheap and take 5 minutes to swap) and doing a half-day Meguire's 105 cut/205 polish job on it. Then replace the plugs and get it tuned. If someone rides in it and it runs rough, that's going to scare them away from buying it or they're going to lowball you hard. Good luck with sale. I love Redfire and you've done some great, tasteful mods.

Color is a factor yes, i would love to have one in Oxford white, or sonic blue. I do love to drive the car as much as possible, it's an absolute riot, which is kind of why i was ok with buying a high mileage cobra anyway.

Good advice! the lights are on my list, though i'm debating on doing a projector retrofit project, but the supplies are $500. The tune however is something im not sure about, because i'm not sure who will be buying the car or where they're from, so if it goes to a low altitude area, it would need another tune

This...... get it tuned and running properly THEN list for sale. Otherwise ur gonna take a bath!

I wouldn't bother listing it as is, get it running right and retuned or you'll get offers in the $11-12k range.

Running right, $14.5-16k.

So, it actually runs and drives great, the only reason i think it needs to be retuned is i see on my x4 tuner that the long term fuel trim is at 20% below or above perfect when cruising

That's high. Could be your primary 02s, check for exhaust leaks etc.

I'd list for $15k and take anything over $12k. Hard to tell from pics, but that paint looks really rough, which to me really drops the value. I have no issues replacing mechanical and throwing parts at a project. Body work is something a lot cannot DIY and it's $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

i wouldn't sell it to buy another one.. keep it and do the maintenance or move on entirely

That's fair, and the part i struggle with. I want to drive the car i buy, i just don't know how long these motors tend to last. Hoping a while, because they're expensive.

I would keep it and fix the issues that are bothering you. Mileage doesn’t mean a whole lot if it’s not burning oil and you’ve maintained it.

I’d keep it and address the concerns. If you really want to sell, I’d remove the tint, detail the car inside and out, address the tune and abs lamp. Then list for 22-24

Definitely a six figure Cobra. I’d fix at least the headlights before selling it. If it doesn’t burn oil I’d probably just keep it if you drive it a lot.
