omg 30k?

03SVTCOBRA 07-12-2013 05:34 PM

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.

03SVTCOBRA 07-12-2013 08:34 PM

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.

DIGGLER 07-12-2013 08:41 PM

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

Matts94Z28 07-12-2013 11:28 PM

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

RobC, did email even EXIST when you were 9yo?

: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

ForceFed4g63 07-13-2013 11:15 AM

I would buy it lol. Seems like he could have gotten more usable power with a blower, unless he cranks the boost waaaay up I guess.

GreebeanZ28 07-13-2013 12:04 PM

you aint got the cash foo

DIGGLER 07-13-2013 01:15 PM

pretty sweet lotus esprit for 28k....

blkscls1z 07-13-2013 01:16 PM

Nobody wants to pay 30k for a 04 Cobra like nobody wants to pay 40k for a 06 Z06. Buncha old heaps.

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.

04ctd 07-13-2013 06:20 PM

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.

TurboWS6 07-13-2013 07:39 PM

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

snakeplissken 07-13-2013 07:51 PM

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.

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.

blkscls1z 07-13-2013 10:03 PM

I would take a 03-04 cobra over a 5th gen Camaro anyday!

snakeplissken 07-13-2013 10:10 PM

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.

Shane361 07-13-2013 10:42 PM

Supra is a dream car of mine, def timeless.

GreebeanZ28 07-13-2013 11:29 PM

Meh. See one Cobra, seent em all. Lols.

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.
