Car looks nice, BUT...............

1) The price seems a bit high.. Do a KBB and see what they suggest its worth..
2) I don't like the color.. Black looks good and all but is a MOTHER to keep looking good..
3) Auto is for the loose IMO.. Unless, your not much of a stick shift type of person.. Which some people are.. Thats nor good or bad IMO..

Thats just what came to mind when I looked at the link.. Hope it helps..

You can get a hardtop terminator for around the same price... why do a GT when you can have a snake????

Also.. Convert GT = Hardtop Cobra for insurance!!!

EDIT: -1 for automatic! Auto Convert GT's are absolute dogs. Unless you plan on doing a lot.

seems a bit high, like they said I have seen 03 cobras in that range.

I dunno if I would want a vert in canada (not a big fan of verts anyway)

It really depends on what you want it for. Your starting off with the slowest possible combo for that year.

That is high, I got my 01 vert 5 speed with 16k miles for 15k. Look around. Do a yahoo search within 200 miles and I bet you come up with something.

If you can, look for a better deal on a cobra. If you can't find a cobra for around the same price, try to save for it or something. For that much money, you better find yourself a cobra
