Price for Cobra?

[MaCaNs]

Might be selling my car in the next few months. Sucks, but with an 18 month old and another on the way come August, I need something more practical, since I drive this car 3-4 days a week to work and back. Would like to pay it off and keep it, but I dunno...seriously at a crossroads....don't know what to do....

.....anyways........

What do you all think I could get for it?

2004 TR Cobra - few scratches, and a ding or two from usual wear and tear. Chrome stock wheels
54,xxx miles
Not garage kept, but washed/polished weekly. Oil changed every 3/4k. Never seen the track. Bought car with 5,000 miles on it.

2.9 Pulley
K&N CAI
O/R UPR X-Pipe
Magnaflow C/B

Any thoughts MACA? Any help would be great. Already have two people interested....... Kelly Blue Book in 'good' condition says $18,275.

Anyone sell one lately?

Thanks,

~Mason

I haven't but I think you will be in the ballpark at 18ish.

I can't believe I'm actually going to post this....but I agree with Jason on this one. I think the 18k ballpark is probably close to what you'll get for the car right now. If I were you, I'd watch the market here on svtp and see which cars actually get sold, then see if you can find out what they sold for.

*sigh*, I never though I'd see the day where I agree with Jason on the resale price of a mustang....:nonono:

I should point out that it really bugs me to post that, because I still like to dream that my car is worth close to 30k. lol. But yeah man, I'd put it on the market for 19,5 if you want to sell it quickly and just leave yourself some room to negotiate.

If others post up and give evidence that the car is worth more you won't be the only person that's glad to hear it, but unfortunately the used car market is kinda hurting right now.

I think the 18s are trade in value. Private sale should be the 19-21k.

19-21 k

Thanks for the input fellas. I'll see what happens to the market in the next 2 months before unloading. Catcha on May 3rd GTG.

To be honest if I could tell my car right now for 21k, I think I would sell it! KB/Whipple cars are 20-22 (depending on mods).

I just got offered 26K for mine and turned it down......2.2KB, 9K miles on it though.

Yea the 9k might of had something to do with it haha

I've been watching the price of Cobra's here and there recently...I'd say your in the 18-19k range OP.

Don't make a quick decision... car seats will fit in the back and the rumble will lull them to sleep. I know because I've done it in my '96 Cobra. Now that the kids are older they like to go for rides in my '03 and my 13 yr old daughter likes when all the kids comment about her Dad's car when I drop her at school. :lol1:

I would agree that you should start asking 19 to 20K. It gives you some room to move and still get a fair price. Unfortunately I think we all feel our cars are worth more than they would actually sell for. :shrug:
