Evening gents,

I traded in the 2011 5.0 GT two weeks ago on a new 2013 Tacoma.( I know I need to update my Sig) Today I found a 1997 Cobra in immaculate condition.
It has 148k miles on it, Cobra R black chrome rims, steeda suspension, exhaust, 2003 Cobra seats, 5.0 shifter, etc. I bought it after test driving it.

Car runs awesome, but a little rich. Anything to be looking out
for since it has 148k miles?

As far as I know the car should run fine if it was properly taken care of. Try posting some pictures, because I would like to see it.

Only things I can think of is the window motors going bad, and the T45 transmission isn't the strongest in the world. The window motors can be fixed easily by buying the plastic rollers that go inside them for around $5 at autozone.

Changed the oil today because this thing had sat in the guys garage for two years. He had not changed the oil since October 2011. It was pretty nasty.....

I figured out why I was smelling the "rich smell". It has an OR X.

I forgot to mention the color, Pacific Green.
