    Can I drive a 2004 Cobra in the snow?

    I was wondering if I can drive a 2004 Cobra in maybe 3-6 inches of snow if necessary. Should I put Blizzaks on it from December through March? Does this car have so much torque that it would make no difference?

    Looking to buy a Cobra tonight!

    The first dealer just called me and upped the trade-in value of my BMW to $33,000. So now the cost of the Cobra would only be $500.

    Buy a 2004 Cobra or 2005 GT?

    MSRP is $36,500 and invoice is $33,000 so how is that a big deal? Besides, I live in New York and things are just more expensive here. Let me reiterate: I am trading in a 2004 BMW 330i for which they are giving me $32,000. Then I will pay the difference of $2,000 in cash. I want an even trade...

    Buy a 2004 Cobra or 2005 GT?

    I can get a new 2004 Cobra for $34k or should I just wait for a 2005 GT? I am paying cash for either one I choose. It will be my daily driver and I will put snow tires on it for the winter months. What do you think?

    Should I get chrome rims on a 2004 Cobra?

    I think the non-chrome wheels look great on silver and that is the color I want. Chrome only looks good on dark colors IMO.

    Looking to buy a Cobra tonight!

    Another dealer is only offering me $29k for my trade-in while a third dealer is offering $31k. I guess I should go with the first one who will give me $32.5k.

    Should I get chrome rims on a 2004 Cobra?

    Should I get the 2004 Cobra with chrome wheels or just get the regular wheels? They are a $695 option. Is chrome too over the top? Also, are they harder to clean and do they get scratched easily? I live in the Northeast and the car would see salt covered roads. What are the pros and cons for chrome?

    Looking to buy a Cobra tonight!

    The offer I was made was $32,500 trade-in for my BMW and the cost of the 2004 Cobra without chrome wheels is $33,500, or $2,400 off of sticker. Another dealer gave me the same for my trade but the cost of the Cobra would be $34,000. I told them I would sleep on it and I should let them know by...

    Looking to buy a Cobra tonight!

    You are correct. I just found that out from another dealer. I remember I once traded in a car and the dealer showed me his "blue book" value of $1500. I said no way and walked out the door. The dealer would not let me leave until I agreed to a trade-in of $5,500! How's that for a deal? :nice:

    The dealer will NOT sell the Cobra for less than the MSRP at all. They must work on my trade-in to earn my business.

    So when a dealer states that they have their own "blue book", that is BS?

    I brought in a KBB printout but they said that they don't use that and that they use their own, which always has a lower trade-in value.

    How is the Mach 460 sound system? Does it come with a subwoofer? Have any of you replaced it?

    Looking to buy a Cobra tonight!

    I test drove the car last night and absolutely loved it. Truthfully, all I had to do was start it up, rev the gas, and I knew I wanted it. It has the chrome wheels. They are selling it for the $36,100MSRP-$1,000 rebate and NO gas guzzler tax. They will not sell it for less than that. They will...

    Got a NADA printout plus an Edmunds printout of MSRP and invoice pricing. I will accept no less than a $32k trade-in for my BMW and will pay no more than 1k over SVT invoice.
