Did you have SPAM for breakfast this morning?

Pics will tell the story. Assuming it doesn't have any "East Oakland" paint schemes, has a clean title, and no surprises, I'd ask $8500 obo

8500 sounds about right. Don't take less than 8k because even then it's a deal!

Is this the one on mission? I swear I used to drive by all the time and think "that shit has to have an irs" lol IRS FTMFW


Street Sleeper: those offers were probably because they seen 96-98 going that cheap. They probably don't understand what the IRS costs and coil overs etc. Especially if your interior is in very good condtion and the paint you should be able to get a lot more than 5500. Problem is the economy. I don't think many people value the IRS like some other people do. So I think unless you find someone who really wants an IRS SN95 Cobra you will have harder time selling for much more than 6-7k.

If you can swap that IRS out and sell it separately.

What year cobra is the irs out of?

Any mods? Bruces bushings? LPW diff cover? Gears?

Even without mods I would say you could get around 800-1200 for an 03 IRS and maybe 500-700 for a 99-01 cobra IRS.

And you can sell the coil overs and get some good $$ for em if they are good quality. Just swap some eibach's or h&r in place of them.

the `01 IRS is worth the same as the 03-04 IMO, the only real difference on those is the front of the diff doesn't mount to the cross brace but it's like $100 part that MM and others resell

7-7500 is probably the most you can get, i'd put it up for 8500 and let them low ball from there.
