That all depends on what the dealer is willing to do. I did a locate to see how many mystichrome coupes are sitting out there and out of a 1200 dealer search 15 cars showed up. Some of those cars may already be sold.

There is currently a $3000 rebate (in our zone, may be different in your zone) on the Cobra's right now OR 0% financing up to 72 if you qualify. Invoice on the car is just under $36k and memo would be about $34,600 range. I would imagine at this point you may be able to buy one for close to memo less rebates or the 0%. The 0% expires tomorrow!!

Hey Darin...is there a way to do a nationwide search to find out how many new '03s are still available right now? I'm blown away every time someone says their dealer has '03s left on the lot. Are there really that many left?

I don't think there is a way for the customer to do it. But we can do an entire dealer body search in 300 dealer increments. I'll check it out ant get right back to you.

How about remaining Cobra's in Canada? Can you search that as well? Much appreciated if you can.

I just searched for 03' coupes, non-anniversary. Out of 3819 dealers in the 50 states (sorry I can't do Canada) it showed 34 cars. That doesn't mean there are 34 cars still sitting out there because some of them may have already been sold and just not reported yet, which is common.

There is no reason dealers should have 03's left at this point. You need to get agressive with selling and pricing to move these cars before they get this old. We are down to only two 04's at this point.

You could probably contact a "helpful" dealer who would be willing to do a broad search. Maybe even nationwide.

Many dealerships don't update their websites (if they have one) as often as they should so any inventory shown isn't necessarily correct. I've run into that many times. I'll see a car that gets my attention. I call the dealer and am told it was sold over a week ago. Huh? Pretty frustrating when you're out there hunting for a vehicle.

Thanks for doing that, Darin. I was just curious. My local dealers are like your store...most seem to be down to just a couple of Cobras left. I think the last '03s around here were sold at least 3 or 4 months ago.

This same thing holds true for us when we use the dealer locator to search for vehicles. Each dealer reports their sales once they are delivered. Some dealers do it within about a day, others sometimes take a couple...to several.....to weeks. We don't get reimbursed for the factory incentives until we report the sale.......so what in the world would they wait for.

You're quite welcome. BTW what part of Ohio are you from? I lived in Columbus for 6 years when I was growing up (which I still didn't finish doing:lol: ) and went to the Westerville school district. I wrenched on a friends quarter midget for most of the time I lived there and got to travel to different tracks all over Ohio. What a blast!

The only way you will get a deal on a leftover is to contact a dealer with a car. For me to dealer trade one the dealer with the car is going to want invoice at worst, memo at best. A dealer with a car like you want would probably sell the car cheaper to you than he would to me as another dealer.

If I have some time today I'll get on the locator to try and find some dealers for you to contact. What color/colors would you take and do you want vert or ht?

Griffin Ford in Waukesha Wisconsin shows a Silver 03 10th vert stil available on its on-line inventory on the web.
