I bought this car about a month ago for a project that I have going, however, I have found something else that I'm going to buy, therefore, this one is up for sale. The car needs only little minor TLC to be in excellent condition in my opinion. Looking to get $7,000 obo
-Approximately 255K miles
-All stock
-Bought from original owner
-Passed smog (Valid for another 50 days)
-Black leather in great condition, interior looks as though it's only in the 100K range (only minor issue is a white stain on the passenger side which can be seen in pictures)
-Front bumper has minor damage on the driver side and minor peeling on the passenger side (both can be seen in the pictures)
-Missing passenger side reflector (don't know if that's the appropriate name, but it can be seen in the pictures)
-Driver side has a key mark (seen on pictures)
-Front lights need to be buffed out unless you want to buy them new
Below are a few pictures, but there are more pictures in this photo album, I will add more pictures this weekend if I have some time:

That's correct. Car runs great. The gentlemen who owned it said he had never gone over 70 mph. When service was needed, it was always done at a dealership.

Thanks for repeating that. It makes your level of naiveness similar to the previous owners level of dishonesty...
255K miles, but not one of them above 70. rofl

255k miles is impressive on a mustang if thats the original drivetrain. u havent seen those seniors driving in the slow lane that make u want to pull your hair out when you're stuck behind them?

come on guys ,anything is possible. I almost crashed my work truck last month whem i saw a 60ish lady driving a perfect titanium 5.0 fox that looked definately garaged and stone stock. She didnt look like she would go over 70 either. probably an aod but i would have bought it on the spot.

It would take close to 10 years to drive 255,000 miles if you when 70 miles per hour every mile.

First, don't post useless comments on my thread, if you're not going to buy the car because then the thread gets cluttered. If you aren't going to buy, then don't post, simple as that. I don't go into your threads and post useless comments.
Second, I don't know whether his statement is true or not, but having a Cobra with that many miles on the original drivetrain without a rebuilt, can sure show support for his statement.

The original owner was an older asian man who bought it new when he lived in Colorado. Then he moved over here and used the car to drive to work everyday from Stockton to Berekley.
The guy took me on a test drive and let me tell you I have never been in a car that had so many people honk for driving slow.

alright guys I bought the other car today, this needs to go $6K obo, this is the FMV of the car for fair condition according to KBB, and like I mention before IMO it only needs minor items to be in excellent condition, which is valued at $7,705

Also forgot to mention yesterday: Started the car yesterday and it appears as though one of the cats is clogged, so it will need a new one. But on what you're saving in price you can buy new exhaust and some clear headlights and you'll have a clean daily driver ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)
