Well sure, i mean you're taking a risk on every used car but if all works out then great. But if it doesn't I'll just sell (assuming i got a very good price for myself)

But once again, i'm not looking to SPEND any money. Just looking at paying less for insurance and maybe pay less for a car than mine is worth. My car, on KBB, is $8400 but i know that in my area during the summer I can get at least 9. So if i can get the rebuilt cobra for 7500 or so then i'd say i came out well. Plus, insurance on an 01 Cobra is less than my 03 GT by about $200 a year.

Ok

01 Cobra with 90-100k miles is worth the same or less than my 03 GT with 70,000 miles loaded. Look it up on KBB. Or in the case of the Cobra with the rebuilt title, that is worth less IMO than my GT

I saw that Cobra in lincoln, and DAMN! It looks sweet, almost got one of my friends to buy it but he really wants a Mach or newer GT.

Also, what do you say I come to lincoln and you take me to Ohio to get that Cobra Then i'll have the GT and Cobra for a little bit before i separate from the GT.

Lol that would be a fun trip. We would take your GT and we could run them and see who wins lol

If your serious and pay for everything of mine, I would go with you.

Man up and buy one! That guy will buy your car for $6500 and you could maybe talk him up a little. Then you would have $6500-7000 to play with.

Deffinately look at Mach 1's man. Atleast test drive one to see how you like it compared to the Cobras.
