The mileage wasn't noted.....just a picture of the odometer showing 36k. IMO, the condition of this car shows more like it has a 136k.... at a price of $14995. I don't think that was a decent price. Just maybe the dealer was very negotiable on the price....hard to believe tho.

Yep, steady interest from a number of folks. Original, complete, and well preserved one owner '93 Cobras aren't very common and draw a lot of attention.

Ok I have the car fax on this car

It did not sell. The Cobra was on consignment The owner was willing to take $14k bottom dollar

Also the car was resprayed. IMHO this car wasn't worth even 10k... 136k is a lot of damn miles
There are plenty of clean well kept cobras for a couple thousand more than this listed at.

Finally. This car sat for the last year at a previous dealership ... Now you know why

Exactly it didn't sell. I called the dealership on it last week (the 27th) to let them know I was coming out to look at it. At the end of the conv I asked them about a history report, reason being is bc I found an old for sale ad for this car and this ad noted 121k miles. Of course the dealer said it was a typo(error) on the previous sellers behalf and the car was a true 36k mile car. So thursday comes around I make it to the dealership and theY in fact tell me I was correct and that it has 138k miles. That being said, the car on the inside was in good condition, exterior has been repainted but it was done well as I didn't see any overspray. Looked as it had been broken into before as there was a repair job done on the driver door below the keyhole. Overall it was in good cond. for that mileage, it was well taken care for. Had gears, subframe connectors, lowered, headers, exhaust with cats, pretty good rear main oil leak. In about two minutes it had a half dollar size oil puddle on the ground (after I parked it). So time to negotiate, said I'd pay cash. Salesman says ""its advertised forn $14995", I said "yeah that was when it had 36k miles, what is the price now at 138k miles?". You know the drill, salesman goes to managers office and act like they're talking for a few min, comes back out and says $14k FIRM! He shows me documents that weren't original, or at least I know the window sticker was not orig. Anyway I said were too far apart. Worth $10k-10.5k TOPS which i would have paid for it. It drove well, COLD A/C, tight steering, firm ride, all electrics worked. He said it was shipping out that Friday as it was sold somewhere else. Was going back to owner. Hope this helps someone, def do your due diligence and research!!

BTW I'm new and looking for a red or black reasonably low mileage car 40-60k mile car for a fair price. :biggrin:

EXCELLENT job! that dealer lied to me.. I asked if there were any leaks LOL man i tell you , where is the honesty..

Anyway since then... I will pay for a car fax from now on on every car that I buy! or ask to see the car fax from the dealership.... i recommend this!

I too am looking for the same... reasonably priced... 20 to 40K mile car none of this $30K crap lol

^^^

While a Carfax report can be helpful, keep in mind that these reports do not always show all accidents, etc. There are plenty of threads on this site with examples of incidents that Carfax missed. There is no substitute for checking out a car up close and in person.

Another excellent reply! Good looking out guys

It's nice to see experienced guys offering up good direction. There are a lot of guys looking at these cars and by default don't have good enough experience judging.
