98 cobra-3500$
I came across a vehicle for sale and couldn't believe my eyes,..it is a 98 Cobra with 71k miles in immaculate condition for 3500$. The woman selling it supposedly got it in a divorce and could care less about it just wants it gone. Also, it is listed as a convertible, but all the pics show it being a hardtop...was there a convertible hardtop ever made? Does this seem fake to you guys?
Also, car is plated as a Cali car, but the seller is listed as being in CT. ???
edit* i just blue booked it, its at 9k$

wow, ok i just got off the phone with autotrader and im glad i called! This was a fraudulent add for sure. So....to anyone searching for a vehicle online-beware of ones claiming to be divorced, ive actually seen cobras of this same type for this same price months ago but never acted on it. They too said in the description the seller was divorced and it used to be her husbands.

Wow thanks for the heads up on that. I heard Craigslist is bad with this kinda stuff too. The one i always run into there is a guy being deployed to Iraq and needing to get rid of his car and a friend is selling it for him. I was in the army and deployed to Iraq and i know its all bull $hit.
