Normally, I wouldn't consider the color, as I like red or black mainly, but I found a dark shadow gray Cobra that is in top shape with 21,000 miles. What r your opinions on color?

I originally ordered an '03 DSG Mach back in 2002. I'm glad I never bought it. The color was nothing like I envsioned.

Well, if color choices were unlimited then yea, I wouldn't order it, but this car is in exceptional condition. And the only friggin cobra verts within 500 miles are black or silver. I love black but it's not a lazy man's color, and silver is cool, but it washes out silver wheels, and the black top contrasts too much for my tastes.

If it's modded at all too its very minimal if at all, right down to the pony in the grill and not the cobra you usually see..

DSG is my 2nd favorite color after Sonic Blue. I'd gladly rock a DSG Terminator in good shape.

Its the color on my car. I love it. I wanted black, but as another poster said, its too hard to maintain. DSG looks badass and it doesnt show dirt nearly as much as black.

I love DSW. I'd eventually like to trade my new edge for an S197 and tungsten gray is my first choice.

Be patient. Once the weather breaks, there will be a bunch going up for sale.

Not sure where you are at, but I would not want to buy a cobra during the winter in the snow belt. Says something about the seller willing to drive the car in the winter.

Mine is a Mineral Gray which is very close cousin to DSG. Personally, I really like both of them. I do not know what the production numbers are but it seems like I see a lot less of MG/DSG on the road than the other colors (especially black, white, and red) ... which (to me) is another reason to favor MG and DSG.

Just because they are selling it doesn't mean they daily drive it. Now is the time to buy, price wise.

Yeah, especially for a vert.

That color is sick. Throw on some deep dish FR500's on it and slam it
