Default what about this one?

Since I am in the market for a Cobra, what do you all think about this one?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT

mods are pulley, short throw, I box springs, rear and upper control arms, bilstein shocks and struts, upgraded rear differential, upgraded alternator.

I know the bottom part of the backseat has been changed out but I can always get that after the fact.

Its got low miles and the convertible top is in good condition.....will be going to drive it today...

yeah the other thing is...the cobra emblem has been removed from the passenger side...dunno why but the carfax shows that its never been in a wreck...but I guess the owner couldve fixed it himself without reporting it.

I'd never go by a Car Fax... it's only as good as the people reporting the work. I bet 75% of damage to cars goes unreported.

Exactly. I was about to say, how did you guys miss this!

I wouldn't buy this car. Too many question marks.

Its a good thing people ask around on here, as most first time buyers would never notice those small things, like the fender emblem and such. That is very weird and would throw up some red flags... especially the rear seat being like that.

That cloth bottom seat cushion is terrible, LOL

The passenger side 'missing' cobra emblem could have just been swiped off by somebody who wanted it bad.

I'd still check it out...though the rear seat thing is really strange.....
