Thanks for stopping by! I have a question I'm unsure about and was hoping you all could help. Im looking at trading my 05 GT for this 04 Cobra. Just when I thought the price was too good to be true the seller tells me the engine was replaced due to the previous owner running 87 octane instead of 93. She told me that the cars engine needed to be replaced solemnly for this reason is this true? Thanks!!

Well it is designed to run on 93 octane or higher. Probably blew something up with the 87 in the tank

If there was excessive detonation, its quite possible -- what is the relation of the seller to the original owner and how does the seller have this information. Also, did you pull a carfax?

i don't know about that, seem fishy to me.
