About right, especially with the low miles. Ive seen near stock ones with that mileage go for pretty close to that lately.

i know you guys like those cars... and i know thats a badass car..... but good god that is a 10 year old car. there has been some top running x275 cars sold for about that much recently.

Not all about speed per cash. The car is a collectors item to some folks and they are willing to pay. Only so many real ones are still left and even fewer stock ones left. Now that car being heavily modified isnt so much a collectors item anymore but i can probably pull up 10+ low mileage cobras that have sold for more than they originally sold for 10 years ago recently. I would never pay anywhere near that in fact mine was less than half that price, but for a 10 year old car, most still kbb for 22-30k depending on the miles.

love the cars, but i think the mustang enthusiasts have alot of idiots that screw everything up much like barrett jackson ruining classic car values. its like the housing market reincarnated.

before anyone chimes in about being pissed off, I'M NOT SAYING YOU ARE AN IDIOT OR ANY OTHER FORD ENTHUSIAST IS AN IDIOT. just some of them.

There a lot of gm idiots out there, and a lot of import idiots out there. Can we just agree that there a lot of idiots in the world. Do we really need to narrow it down that far?

nope your right.
in the early 90's i wanted a '67-68 camaro to be my first car. went and looked at several. found a sweet butternut yellow rs with a 327 for $4,000. got some bad grades in school and wound up pimpin the handmedown '78 cutlass instead. :mad:
nowadays (post barrett jackson) that camaro would be worth $20k. thus, they can keep that shit. not worth it to me. for that amount i can pick up a pair of mint condition '80s 442s or 4 conquests. lol

Ugh. That is the car I want one day... butternut yellow 67 w/ a vinyl top!

:eek2:

yeah: wanting versus having = :poke:

cars are consumables, they just wear out. so if you had had it in high school, it would need a full resto by now..remember that ~15k mile 2nd Gen camaro behind bessingers BBQ? roached out, just by age & sitting out side

there is no such thing as a "sweet Lotus Esprit"

i looked at them long & hard for awhile.

a recurring theme was "this car a BRAND NEW REBUILT engine that cost $12/$15K"

i mean, like EVERY OTHER ONE had over $10k in engine repairs. just plain scary..

i think that's why that ebay ad talks about the racing heritage....instead of the reliability record...

That statement is an oxymoron. Example: hey man that's a sweet purple camaro you have there.

Actually 30K for this car is a steal. They sell for 30 with low mileage frequently.

Exhaust
-Currently is routed out the front bumper I will be giving the highflow cats from my previous exhaust.

do the seats & E-brake knob push it towards too ricy to command high dollar as a "mint" car?

Shane361

07-13-2013, 07:00 PM

E-break is MGW which makes interior parts for Corvettes, Camaros, Vipers and Mustangs. Not cheap and have had a lot of their parts on numerous Mustangs. Far from rice in my opinion. Never been a fan of such seats but sure they hold you in place while racing. Curious how loud it is routed out the front bumper, def different.

BadBob's car has the exhaust out the bumper, sounds good.

I'm a big fan of MGW. Based in Atlanta I believe. And I have Corbeaus in my track car. Not the best but a good bang for the buck.

Oh I agree, but some people think cars that old can't be worth that much.

Shane361

Some cars are not, some are. In the Mustang world the Terminator has a cult following such as the Supra for imports. Built from the factory, easy and cheap 500rwhp. Twin screw is 600 and the block can handle it all day long. For the blue color worker it's a dream car. By no means the top dog but bang for the buck it's hard to beat. With only two years made there are getting more and more scarce with all the idiots wrecking them. Blah Blah we have discuss all this before. For the mods and the mileage he will get it...

ForceFed4g63

07-13-2013, 09:40 PM

Shane' s got it right. Mid 90's Supras bone stock with low miles can go for upwards of 40k, they wouldn't be priced so high if people weren't willing to pay that much.

Yep, my law partner bought a '93 Supra TT from Gene Reed Toyota. New.

It was an auto but I regret letting him trade it in.

Now.

Supra is a dream car of mine, def timeless.

Corvettes are also the most useless car on the planet.

You are right, they probably all seem the same when looking at the tail lights.:poke:
But really, its a following. Some people could line them up with v6 and gts and not know any difference. Different strokes for different folks. There's cars like that on just about every car manufactures list of cars.

if i had $30-40k to spend on a car (which i will never have), i would rather buy something that was $100k new in '04 than something that was $38k new in '04.
sticker on '04 cobra ~$38k sell now for $30k
sticker on '98 supra ~$45k sell now for $40k

again, love terminators, love supras... but if people want to pay that much for them im out. same as the '67-68 camaro i always wanted. not worth it to me anymore.

Augusta on Mike Padgett Hwy.....i know i swung by a few weeks ago and picked up a shifter when i was working at a mill there....been working on and off at that mill for six years and just realized MGW was like a half a mile up the street lol

GreebeanZ28

07-14-2013, 11:44 AM

I'd rather have a 20 year newer ctsV for that same 40 g's instead of a Supra. That way I can have the ability to ride in style, make big power and not have to wear a straight brim Motul hat. Lol!
