Need some advice

[torched08]

I found a 04 cobra at a lot I'm thinking about trading my 08 GT in on and there wanting about 5 grand on top of my car, the only thing is I don't want to have to save money forever just to mod the car, should I trade and leave it stock for a while until I get some money built back up or wait til my car sales and buy a car already modded?

need more info on both cars. Are you asking is the trade and price fair?

 

[HEMIHUNTER]

IMHO
If you can sell your car on the market and wait for a tastefully modded Cobra, thats what I would do.

My cars just a premium gt with reg bolt one like wheels, exhaust, intake and nitrous and 22000 miles. The cobra is a 04 silver bone stock one owner with a little under 7000 miles

Sounds nice! What are the dollars and cents though. What is the dealer asking for the cobra.

In my opinion, A stock 03-04 cobra is way more fun to drive. It is also way more cool... It has a better chance of geting you liad too!!

They offered me 17900 for trade In and there wanting 21800. So tax and all I'm looking around 4500 on top of my car

That does sound like a great deal. Good money for both cars

I sent ya a pm, I think I know the car you're referring to and just thought I would share some info on the car with you.

 

[97StangSVT]

I was also looking at the car...could you please PM me?

I just got an email from the dealer that someone put down a deposit and agreed to terms on the Cobra.

buy it. mod it later. theres more satisfaction in doing that i think. Enjoy the power it makes stock, you will be impressed. Then you can gradually add power as you please.

I had a shot at the stock silver one he's talking about. Saw it as soon as it was listed. I had the chance to put a deposit on it but decided to pass. Based on the pics I was given, I saw some heavy rust on bolt/springs/etc in the engine bay. Yeah, <7k miles on a Terminator is AWESOME...it just seemed like it may not have been garaged and possibly saw some years sitting outside. I will admit, good price on it!

After thinking on it that was going to be my intentions but around 3 I got email that said the car had been sold

The car needed somebody that knew how to clean and detail a car. The inside was perfect though except for the ebrake boot. The engine just needed to be cleaned and have a new belt put on it

wait, sell your car make the most money out of it then buy a cobra that has the right mods.

i bought a heavily modded cobra for the same price you are buying that one mine only has 23k miles on it

They sent me a picture of the engine bay and it looked pretty good to me. Can you elaborate on where you saw the rust??

What is wrong with the ebrake boot? The picture I saw had the ebrake pulled up, but I didn't notice anything wrong with it. Is the belt bad on it? I didn't notice it in any of the pictures.

The bottom of the ebrake boot is tearing and the belt just squeaks probably from not being drove much
