I'm seriously considering buying an '04 Cobra with just over 6,000 miles. What potential issues could the vehicle have since it has obviously sat around for a while?
The carfax is clean.

 

Speeding tickets...LOL. Seriously the only thing I have ever seen go wrong with a vehicle that sits for an extended amount of time is a dead battery and/or bad gas. In an extreme case I have seen some of the oil seals fail on a Z71, but that truck sat for a little over a year without being driven (roomate got a DUI and his parents parked the truck). I'd say as long as it runs well you should be good to go.

 

Termis dont have problems.

 

If you dont buy it I will....lol

 

i picked up my 04 with 8900mi. no problems whatsoever.

 

Check for obvious signs of abuse.

Other than doing an oil change and getting the old fuel out of it; you should be ok.

Hopefully you're aware of all the typical/potential clunks of the driveline and IRS so you can properly identify them as "normal" or not.

 

I'm not aware. Where can i find more info on that? I finally picked up a 2004 Cobra last week, better pictures to come...

 

Just look the Cobra over good....
