Hey svtp, Now that I finally have the time I decided to make this thread and share my exciment of the purchase I made about 3 weeks ago, on this 03 dsg with 45k miles on the odometer. Plus I know we all love seeing stuff like this. So after several months of not having a terminator I'm finally back! This is cobra #3 by the way. First one was an 03 oxford white that had 10k miles when I purchased it back in 2012 owned it for 2 years then sold it with 18k miles, worst mistake I ever did, then I bought an 03 Redfire which needed some love, but things didn't go as planed and let's just say the car is history. I pretty much ended without a cobra for around 9 months. Up until the 20th of February. I worked out a couple things financially and I was ready to jump back into another one , so I made wtb thread on here a few weeks ago where I stated what I was looking for, within a couple days I had a member sent me a pm, long story short we talked and after going back and forth exchanging txt messages we agreed on a price. 3 days later I'm driving down to LA from San Jose CA 50 miles south of San Francisco (for those wondering). I had seen the car in photos the seller sent me but when I saw it in person I was blown away. Drove back home the same day with a big o smile from ear to ear I just couldn't stop looking at her thru my rear view mirror. The car looked/looks flawless! But As any 12 year old car it has a few very small little things that I will address soon. I absolutely love the seats. Car has a really nice and long mod list which i wont bother go into so much. I can go on and on to say what a beautiful machine this car is but I'll let u guys be the judge. Onto the fun part Enjoy!
Loaded and ready to go !

I do have some fuel upgrades that wouldn't make it very hard to go e-85 but im just not ready for that at the moment. Ill most likely just do a pump gas tune and a race gas tune. Oh right on. U ever hang out with any fellow cobra/mustang guys?

Congratulations! My favorite color. :) I can appreciate (in photo #4) what you said about seeing it in your rear-view mirror all the way home. Heart pumping, of course. :thumbsup:

Congrats on the new purchase, but why did you put the strap ends in the trunk like that instead of just trying them off? With the wind I wouldn't be surprised if they left some scratches.

Glad you're happy with the car. It's nice to see it went to a good home, let me know what it puts down when you get it tuned.
