Selling the 94 cobra........

11k is not bad...since i think cobras typically go for 7-8ish these days and sometimes more for a clean one. i paid 9500 for mine back in 2005 i believe, but mine was clean as hell with 70k on it. my friends also trying to sell his supercharged modular cobra but market seems a bit dry right now.
 
Ok I now have a serious dilemma... I had 3 people look at my car today, all 3 of them are in their teen's early 20's, i'll be damned if I sell my car to some punk ass kid who is going to destroy it, and i'm dead serious about it... I will not sell it to any of them, Craig's dad (a kid who came to look at it) offered me 11k because I said I would not sell it to his son. My answer was still NO....... Am I being rediculous? I just cant see my blood, sweat, and tears going to SHI*t. I'm going to keep it if these are the only people who want it.

Sorry for the rant, I let the first kid drive it and he drove it like absolute crap, trying to powershift and act stupid, I told him to pull over after a mile....Stupid dick, I hope you are reading this ya ass. You said your a member so speak up.
i hate to break this to you, but i think you are going to have a very hard time finding someone who is going to baby the car. people who are into these cars like to drive them hard. they like dumping the clutch, smoking the tires and seeing how fast the car can go. hell, that is what we like to do too. much more so when i was younger though. after the new owner gets used to the car, they will start to love it and that is when they start to take care of it.

it will probably be sort of like that when my daughter starts dating. whatever punk ass kid wants to taker her out had better make me feel like he is treat her the way she deserves to be treated (the way i have for the last 14 years). it is really going to be hard for me to let her go, but i know i will have to.

good luck though, i hope you do find someone you feel will take care of the car.

one other thing ... try to remember when you were his age, and imagine you were he. especially if he really likes the car, he was probably nervous with you watching him, and maybe he is not very used to driving a stick. and i bet he wanted you to think he could drive it fast, and then fell on his face. i bet he was pretty embarassed by the whole thing.
