    Need help with new car decisions

    Well, with that amount of money to work with, you're missing what might be your two best choices. You can pick up a low mileage 1999 or 2001 Cobra outright with $17-20K, or that would be about 2/3 to 3/4 of what you would need to pick up a an 03/04 Cobra, if you're willing to finance $8-10K...
