Cobra R at Mecum

[TFStang]

I was blown away by the price it sold for. Good news for present owners, I guess.

Looks like numbers are going up. Car is officially 20 years old and getting harder and harder to find as time goes by. Especially nice ones with the all important black binder.

Good evening everyone

2 more long sleeps for me, I'd like to say thank you everyone for helping me out all the PM's and emails back and forth with all you guys. You guys pointed out a lot of things I never even thought about. But if I dont manage to get this one at mecum I'll definitely put all the pointers you guys gave me into the next one. If this ones meant to be it's meant to be. You'll be the first to know if shes coming home

Thank you everyone

Sorry guys I let you down, I went with my gut. I went as far as I could. Bidding 67k and winning adding 12% auction fee I'd already be sitting at $75k just a little to much and not meant to be

Smart, think with your wallet, not your emotion.

 

[Michael Ruscica]

No offense to anyone, I love the 00R but 75k has to be mint with all documentation

 

[Michael Ruscica]

On top of that I still need to do my conversion another 35%

I kind of expected the hammer to fall a pinch north of $70k. Close...

If you’re looking for a car you can actually drive instead of a museum piece, you made the right decision. Other members on here sell their vehicles at a fairly regular basis you will find one.

Your absolutely right, just got to be patient. Appreciate all the support guys. It was close though, if it's meant to be it's meant to be

Sorry it didn't work out for you, but you'll eventually find a good one that fits your budget. A local race shop a few years ago had one that was owned by the shop owner. I saw it one time. I was blown away. It looked stunning and oh, the sweet sound of that motor. It was hard to walk away from it. So impressive! I owned a 2003 Cobra with a modded engine at the time, and loved it, but that 2000 R just grabbed me. I can only imagine the actual experience of driving one.

Hope you find yours soon!
