yeah definately overpriced, is your budget 15,000 before the money from your 07 v6 or after? if its after you can probably get a 03 cobra, i got for 03 for 19k its a vert, and i traded my 99 v6 in so i payed 14 for it, car payment is up there but its worth it

way too much money for that car. If youre lucky he will lower the price after it sits there for a while....but then again, its been sitting since 1998.
for $15k you can get a nice Mach, but the insurance will be higher than a 98 Cobra....just shop around

I dont think your a car collector so I wouldnt base your decision on a car for its mileage unless you want to wait 35 years and it will be a collector but ur not going to want to drive it if thats the case. Imo buy a car with more miles for a lot less and use the extra cash to make it yours, put the mods on it urself. I bought a cobra with a little bit of miles on it but with a few nice parts nothing extreme most stock for $6200. I've seen cobras in my area with 30,000-40,000 for 10 grand.

Im sure he is going to jump on trading a Cobra for a 07 6'er
Thats like trading your super hot Trophy wife to a Fat wife. Sure there both fun to roll around with but which one would you rather be seen with?

Personally I rather have the one thats got more miles but have way better goodies lol if ya know what i mean.. in both ways lol.. Thats just my opinion and he askin for everyones so it just gives him food for thought.. and xx07whitev6xx just dont make a emotional decision, think about it and decide what is best for your situation and what you want to do with the car.. Dont do what anybody says, get the info you need and make your own decision.. good luck
