Hey everybody, I'm new to this site and this is my first post, but I'll get to the point. I'm thinking about cheapin out and buying a cobra with around 80k on it. I was just wondering what are the weakest links on these cars and which parts I would likely need to replace first.

That's a wide open question. It all depends on how it was taken care of! A newer one with that mileage would mean an everyday driver and actually those are less beat on than the sunday or few times a week driver. I wouldn't buy a 96-98 80kmi but that;s just my .02

Well i was thinking a 99-02,or 03-04 if I can find one cheap enough...And i was thinking of spending 10-15k...I dont know how it would have been taken care of though since I would be the one buying it.

The only response I have to this thread is...

If you "cheap out" now, you will get it in the end... Spend money now, or spend more later - take your pick.

If you, by some odd chance found an 03-04 for $10-15k, I wouldnt touch it. I've got 80k on my 01, 50k I put on myself taking care of her and havent had any problems other than the normal little things like COPs andplugs. Good luck though
