She said she'll take 14k but I might squeeze 13 and some change.

The other one is a single owner, 22,000 miles but he wants 23, I'm sure he'd take 17 cash in hand. Both are black hard tops , yea no offense to converts but I don't like them either

If you can get that 22k miles one for 17. Id definitely say take that one. Mine is going on 79k miles right now. Still running strong.

Yeah its cool. I get that a lot. But its my weekend car, I can pick up girls all day long with the top down. I have my 08 Bullitt for a hard top to drive if I want to.

As far as the decision goes, like others have said, the cobra will have loads of power more than the 3v. If i was basing it on power and just wanting a cobra, I would take a hit on the old car and get what i want and not worry about it as long as I could pay for it.

Verts have just never been a strong point for me, is all! Not sure why, that's just my opinion. Everyone's got one! Doesn't change the fact that your car is absolutely beautiful.

OP if you can get that Cobra for $17k...well, all I can say is congrats and I'm jealous! With those miles and that price I don't know if I could pass that up...
