There’s a lot of reasons people might want to go back in time. Some might want to go back to simpler times, or re-visit their youth. But what if you’re limited to go back only 16 years? Things were a bit different in the world back in 2000, but that’s when the Cobra R was produced. And this particular R came right out of a time capsule.

With only 85 miles, this Cobra R is genuinely a brand new car. The sportscar dealership which is selling this car is an extremely reputable one as well. Since it is basically brand new, you won’t have to worry about fussing with a Carfax, or negotiating any imperfections on the car, because there won’t be any. All that’s left for the customer to do is justify spending $79,995 on this rare pony.

We know these Cobra Rs are unique in the used car market. They are one of few vehicles that either didn’t depreciate, or actually appreciated in value. But is it worth $25,000 more than new? Well, if a buyer wants something bad enough, they will pay any price for it.
