Default 2004 Cobra

Hey guys, I am going to be buying an 04' cobra soon and am wondering where to look for one. I check ebay, autotrader, and craigslist. There any other sites out there? I am looking a specific color, mileage, and stock so I am going to have to look for awhile. Also if anyone is interested in my 04' GT with basic bolt-ons PM me.

Why waste your money on a cobra? Just build the **** out of the GT.

I can think of 1000 good reasons not to, mainly OEM build quality and the fact that originally it had a warranty from ford.

There's a bunch of advantages of going to a bone stock car.

yeah, but once you get to a point so far from stock that it's insane, things start breaking and just regular maintenance starts to be very, very, very expensive.

So if I had a choice right now, buy a GT and build it up, or buy a stock cobra, I'd go with the cobra all the way.

I don't know if that was supposed to be snide or not, but I do know alot about it, as I've said before, hind sight is 20/20.

I mean, I want to slap myself when I think about how much money I've spent on my car over the past year and a half.

I mean there are just a ton of things that come up, and even though most of them are small, they still add up
