How about that reliablility!?!??!?!?!

lol seriously though, why not buy it and do a engine/tranny rebuild... Think about it... 25k for a regular one... 13k between that and the 25k... rebuild the internals, tranny... get the blower rebuilt for a couple hundred bucks and look what you have now... oh and change the horrid wing.

See thats what I was thinking. I would park that sum bitch in the driveway and drive the 05 to work, but the only thing is that the 05 is still under warranty and I dont wanna run up the miles on it. But then again, I could just drive the Cobra to work everyday and not care if it breaks down, which I doubt it would and just save up to rebuild the tranny, engine and other things.

All I got to say is that this Cobra is a great:




Project car for anyone interested.

Looks like a descent deal I have seen wrecked ones go higher than that. The fact that it is still running at 150K shows you how well ford built these cars

it looks really clean 2..im sure it will last til 200+ i would buy the car if i didnt have the GT. and if the engine goes to **** i would buy a 4v one. the engine might still be good to go still..btw im sure hes some rich retired old guy. and im sure that car is still just as fast.

man i wish my wife would let me buy it 12G's for an 03 cobra doesnt matter 151k or not its so cheap to rebuild it i bet for less than 9k you could kennebell it rebuild the heads with new valves and all new seals around the whole engine with new pistons rods and bearings, so for less than the purcase price of a stocker with 50-60k you could had a freshly rebuilt 0mi kennbell 550rwhp 03 cobra
