Im Stuck between :
1. A bone stock black 93 cobra. Grey leather interior. Super clean but 160k on it.

2. 1993 coupe. 347 stroker with a blower. 5lug , 03 cobra seats with about 3k on the drivetrain.

What would you do? Both for around the same price....

Both clean title and both Pass Smog!!!! Aha. Im leaning more towards the coupe right now. I can't be without a coupe! But the cobras hold better Value? The cobra is high milage but it looks super clean like it should be low milage!!

Alex I say both would be great they will certainly both go up in value. Whatever you choose bro slide me the number of the other persons car you didn't purchase. I'm still on the lookout for either a fox coupe or cobra [patriot]

If I were to rebuild the motor in the cobra it would still be woth the same because there's so many miles on the Body?

Francisco I'll let you know man. Both cars belong to verry Good Friends of Mine.

I'd get the coupe, Cobras are cool cars but I don't really see the point in having one unless it's damn near mint condition.
Otherwise you're just overpaying for a regular fox..
How much were the two?
