Feeler: my 03 cobra possibly for sale

**map22** · 06-18-2011, 10:42 PM

as some of u know i bought this oxford 03 cobra in december (kevins old car), i honestly do not want to sell it but it just sits in the garage most of the time and with me working as a pipeliner it would be nice to have a truck...the car runs amazing no problems at all, would like to get 21k for it just because im on the edge about selling it, and its just about what i paid for it all in all, if u guys have any questions send me a pm, thanks!

There is a lot of things I regret from my youth. One is selling my 1970 GTO with original paint/ interior back in 1981. 2003 Cobras are a special vehicle that you should really think about selling. If I had one, I would not sell it. Jut my opinion. You can always find a beater truck.

Ditto... I owned the same 03 twice... I WILL own one again someday... just got a house and got married so $$ is tied up... I regret selling it daily!

Me (Kevin) being the old owner of that car I can say it was a great car, I just wanted something different.

I think you will regret selling it. Reason I say that is because I sold my first GN back in 2,000 and regretted it about 3 wks after. It was a car I always wanted. I swore to myself I would buy another some day when my finances permitted and in Feb. of last year I bought another and this one I hope to be barried in.

Don't sell it unless your absolutely ready to do so. Just my .02

X2 on buyin a beater truck if you need one. Keep the cobra, it's not hurting it just sitting in the garage. Plus that makes it that much more rewarding when you do get to drive it! I drive my car once a every two weeks if I'm lucky lol. Damn weather doesn't help any though.

haha ive heard that too but probably out of my price range right now

**Terminated** · 06-20-2011, 03:58 PM

I say keep it. I already know I won't wanna sell mine, especially after how long it took me to buy one.

**SonofaBish** · 06-20-2011, 04:14 PM

Eh, you gotta do what's best for you ... don't let other people spend or save your money... b/c its really easy to spend someone else's money... If its more important at this point to have a truck, then that's the bottom line...

No matter what anyone says, there's plenty of '03/'04 Cobra's out there... you will be able to get one again... and that time may be shorter than you can realize at this point...

I sold a car i swore i'd never sell, all because it was to achieve something greater.. my T/A was a one of a kind, and really was a great ride... at the time, i'd never in a million years have imagined that i'd be in a C5 'Vette about a year later...

You never know what's going to happen in the future.. you gotta do what's best for you financially ... and ONLY YOU know what's best ...

Good luck.. you'll miss the car if you sell it, for sure... but life is full of hard decisions
