Default What would you do??

I have a 2000 gt vert with 120,000 on the body and 40,000 on the motor. full bolt ons, exhaust, gears, short throw shifter. and have someone who wants to trade a 1999 cobra with 120k and just a borla catback. both are 5speeds.

My first thought would be why would someone want to trade a Cobra for a gt.

This is exactly right!

May be that the Cobra owner knows how bad (as in running bad) their car is and just wants something better.

The picture do not look bad. They are asking $8000 obo or had a list of vehicles they were willing to trade for. It seemed kinda too good to be true but i figured id email them anyway to get some information. Might go look at it and atleast get a fun ride out it

i believe you are referring to the B head 96-98 cobras, which still aren't that bad.
