[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 5920578, member: 9628"] I guess it all depends upon what the specific buyer/owner wants to do with his own money. Personally, I bought a 2000 Cobra R, like this, in 2003 except with a few more miles, 21.6 instead of 11.5. I have driven mine a little, it now has approx. 500 miles on it. "IF" this auction is legit, and this 11.5 mile car is in the $90K range, and since miles, or lack-of, are a very large factor/difference in money on these cars, mine could be worth $55K-$60K right now, maybe more. That means, my driving 475 or so miles in my 2000 Cobra R has possibly cost me about $25K-$35K. To a collector/investor a $25-$35 thousand dollar deduction for a few miles is a big deal. To others, $25K-$35K is chump change. Maybe this kind of money is nothing to you? If I were looking at an 00R to drive/use, even a little bit, this is not the one I would be looking at to buy. No flaming......just reality, and that is only if this auction is/was legit, which I can't say with certainty that is was, $90K for an 8 year old 2000R is steep, IMHO. Heck, with $35K, you could buy a 2004 Mystichrome, or an '03 10th and have some extra cash. The seller of this 2000R would not pass out, he would watch you pull of the wrappers while he is counting the return on his investment $$$ that you have just paid to him, and see you tearing off thousands of dollars within a few short minutes, I'll bet he would even laugh with you.<<It's yours!! I'll bet he would tell his friends about it afterwards and they would all laugh too. I do collect, but I am also an enthusiast. I can't just let the cars sit, I have to enjoy them, at least a little bit. My putting a few miles on them every year also keeps them lubricated, which is a concern to many. R [/QUOTE]
