Is it local to you?

Go check it out if so..

If it's in good condition it looks like a decent deal, depending on how your local market is. We have 03 GT's going on sale for just under $20,000 so if that was the price of that Mach here it'd be gone within 5 seconds of going on sale.

You can almost buy a cobra for that. Im sure you can get them down to 20,000.
KBB on it is 21,260 for EXCELENT and 20,075 for GOOD and thats private party. Im sure they robbed whoever traded it in because thats what stealerships do.

About $1300 less than what I paid for the Cobra

That's about what the Mach's around here are selling for though.

I could've bought an '03 with 860 miles on the ticker for $18,500.
Only problem was this came up only 3 weeks after I bought mine.

Cobras over here sell for 25-30k +



It all really boils down to your local market......sometimes it's worth it to travel a few hundred miles to get a car for a better deal.

Still has Factory Warranty.

Driver Air Bag; Anti-Lock Brakes; Air Conditioning; Alloy Wheels; Cruise Control; Passenger Air Bag; Rear Window Defroster; Power Seats; Leather Seats; Power Door Locks; Power Mirrors; Power Windows; Power Steering; Side Air Bag; Tinted Glass; Tilt Wheel; Traction Conrtol;

I know it has a Mach Stereo, not sure which one. This car literally looks amazing, the only blemish that I saw was the front bumper (the drilled holes for a front tag)

Do all of these specs seem right?
Yes they make a 17x10.5 Mach 1 wheel,they have them on EBay.

Bank's do not go by KBB.They usually go with the NADA price which will be alot lower than the KBB.

It has the Mach 460 stereo probally.

exactly why i would be afraid to test drive an 07 cobra if I ever was given the chance, I would be way to afraid to drive a 500hp car and it would make my GT look like a yugo. When I first test drove my GT I was giving it way to much power to get it started, I was so used to my slow *** six... go for the mach if you can afford it, the insurance, gas, etc.
