Default Might be trading the Saleen in

So there is a Ford dealership in Half Moon Bay, CA that is interested in doing a trade with me. My 2002 Saleen s281 s/c with 45k for their 2004 Mystic Cobra 30k. I know the difference should be around $5k if we go off their asking price.

If all turns out well, yay or nay

Interested to hear from you all first!

As long as the car is in good condition, youd be trading in a car with parts that would be harder to replace, for a better car with lower mileage with parts that easily available... i say do it.

Cool

Aside from the agreed upon value ...... I like the trade in. The Mystichrome is an eye catcher in a different sense the SALEEN, but nonetheless sexy.

I say yay!! Enjoy and looking forward to pics.

Looks like an unmolested Cobra which are becoming harder to find. I'd get it. If I were buying it outright I'd give 25.

I would do it! They built around 520 mysti color, so it is somewhat rare. " last I checked with Ford, the steering wheel is $900.00+"

I would shoot for around $24-25K. Then pulley, exhaust, cai, tune and run 11's !

The owner of the dealership is a car guy. His son is a racer. They sell a lot of GT500s there. I have talked with him a couple of times. Seems like a good guy.

I would say yay, mainly because I'm not a big fan of saleen that year.

I'm going with YAY. Termi's are sweet and a Mystic on top of that. Why is the car not in your garage right now.
