FS: 2003 Sonic Blue Cobra, 10K miles, 700+ HP, KB 2.8H, 4R70W, SRA, etc...
2003 Ford Mustang Cobra
Sonic Blue exterior
Charcoal interior
10300 miles
This was Horsepower By Hermanns (HBH), Hermann Stolzenberg's personal car.
He bought it new and did all of the modification to the car personally at his shop.
It was sold by him with just under 7000 miles on it to a customer of his, who then only drove it for @ 1600 miles and then I got it.
This car has nothing but the best parts in it. There is easily over $40,000 in modifications done to the car.
Car is not gutted, retains all powers and accessories....
I drive it any day that its not raining.
It idles like a rock and drives nice and smooth, this is not a track only car by any means.
This is a 9 second capable car that can be driven anywhere at anytime......
The only reason I am contemplating sale is I could use the cash for a few other important things right now.
I have NO NEED to sell it, so no lowball offers, no comments about the price, or about the economy, or KBB prices, or any other BS at all PLEASE.
99-04 Lightning- FULLY BUILT plus cash to me
C5 Z06- MODS preferred plus cash to me
Jeep SRT8- MODS preferred
Trailblazer SS- MODS preferred
C6- MODS preferred
I will be very picky when and if it comes to trades, this is a really spectacular car and I will only trade for the same type of vehicle.
Cared for, meticulously maintained, super clean, well planned and installed mods, proven power, and the lower the mileage the better......
I CAN NOT and WILL NOT put any cash up for any trades, just an FYI right off the bat.
I also probably will not be able to travel more than a couple hours out to do anything so keep this in mind please.

-There is one ding on the wheel lip, passenger side 1/4 panel. It is the size of a quarter and it can be removed with paintless dent removal for less than $100 bucks.
-There is one small scratch on front bumper, one cluster of very light scratches on both the drivers door as well as the roof. Those small clusters will come out with a compound, but I just haven't gotten to it.
-One small crack in the "cup" where you hold door to close it. There are also a few scratches on the door panels from the seatbelts hitting against the cage and panels.
-Car also is just about covered in 3M protective clear bra. Entire nose, 1/3 of hood, as well as all the way down bottom of doors, fenders, 1/4 panels, etc is all covered to save it from rock chips.

-Car is setup and wired for Sirius radio.

(interior pics: the comp was out to do some tuning with a chip and has been put back and the marks on the floormat are only watermarks)

Sweet ride, and sounds awesome! Sounds like a good price for all that is in it, I do have a nicely modded 2002 Z06, supercharged, methanol injected and many other mods for sale and/or trade like yourself check it out here, there are videos of it near the bottom of each page.
But like you I do have a bottom dollar even though it is listed on those two pages a little higher, my bottom is $35k I've personally got over $50k myself in this fine ride in the three years I have owned it. I'm also in the same boat, no need to sell, and I have the clean clear title like I did the day I got it.
Bump for a awesome ride too...

Damn. Thats my dream car. Would be tough for me to get a loan for that bad boy though since most banks go by KBB or N.A.D.A. Good luck with selling it or trading it or whatever comes up.
B/c with 700+ HP on tap its quicker, more consistent, and still fun as hell shifting it with the manual valve body. The only thing missing is the clutch pedal......
