94 Cobra Progress Thread (formerly Help Me Decide Thread)

OK. As a lot of you know from my other post I am supposed to buy that 95 GT mustang for $1700. The guy is M.I.A. I have not been able to get in touch with him for a week and a half. Called daily, no answer. Went to shop, locked up. I know he's busy but the communication is lacking to say the least. aaaaaanyway.......I found this.

I have bought stuff from this guy before. He's a cool dude. If I could get this for say $3500 should I and pass on the 95? (the 95 is a 62k mile car also for $1700)

I did a "drive by" and saw the cobra, he won't be home until later. Looks real nice from the outside.

Let me know what you guys think?

OK. So 625 Rio Red with black leather. That's interesting. I appreciate the link @Noobz347

Now I am really interested in this Cobra. Could buy both I guess......That is if anyone has a home for me when Mrs. SSP kicks me out...

BlakeusMaximus · Feb 7, 2018

I thought you bought the GT. Screw it, spend the extra dough and get that Cobra!! I would!

Mstng93SSP · Feb 7, 2018

A price was agreed on the GT, I just can't find the guy now....I'm real interested in this cobra.

Mustang5L5 · Feb 7, 2018

No brainer really. Cost to mod the GT into a Cobra would exceed the difference. Better brakes, more power, more exclusive, 5.0

Mstng93SSP · Feb 7, 2018

There we go @Mustang5L5 . I like that answer!

95BlueStallion · Feb 7, 2018

Screw the first guy if he had ignored your daily calls. If he wanted to sell, he would be available. Buy the Cobra.

Mstng93SSP · Feb 7, 2018

Yeah, I really think the GT guy had to go to California for business. It's ok, if he wants to sell the car later I might buy it.

billison · Feb 7, 2018

If the gt has the tri bar rims get it. But get the cobra too

Mstng93SSP · Feb 7, 2018

I got the cobra. Pictures to follow...

Noobz347 · Feb 7, 2018

Success!

Now :

How to get it of
this stupid island

95BlueStallion · Feb 7, 2018

Awesome! Even if you didnt negotiate down from $4800, that was a great price.

Mstng93SSP · Feb 7, 2018

$3700. Needs a clutch.....badly. Drives great. Ice cold A/C. Nice stereo.

It has two dents that need to be addressed, and the spoiler needs paint. I still think I did O.K.

Dang man, I’m jealous. I’m starting to like those cars more and more. Good for you. I’m starting to think that mustangs are just cheaper in Hawaii, or is it just me? A car like that with that mileage would sell for 8k over her in abq. How are you running across these deals??

Davedacarpainter · Feb 7, 2018

Nice car Chris! That was the last mustang my father owned. His was white.

Mstng93SSP · Feb 7, 2018

I run across these deals because I know lots of people here in the mustang community, and I am a craigslist whore. Luckily almost everyone here is into imports, so the mustangs don't sell....and the prices drop and drop. I know when to buy, but more important I know when to walk away..... I just finished my install of my Anderson Ford cam and t moss ported intake on my 93. I guess now I have to do a clutch.......

Mstng93SSP · Feb 7, 2018

I actually never really looked at the market value on these cobras? After taking a look just now, it appears I did REALLY O.K.

BlakeusMaximus · Feb 7, 2018

Lucky guy, those don’t sell very often around here. People hold on to em.

Mstng93SSP · Feb 7, 2018

Yeah, I have not seen many here either. And to find Rio Red was just a bonus!
