Trading in my 01 cobra for 03 cobra

dweb · 08-12-2006, 01:58 PM

They are asking 25900 for the 03 that has 24000 miles on it. Do you guys have any suggestion on how to get a good deal. I would love to get 17000 out of my cobra but that probably won't happen. My car has 2000 in rims and 1200 in the exhuast and some other little stuff my car has 44000 on it.

$17,000 for your 01 Cobra from a dealership?

Your dreaming........

I'm guessing they will offer you $13,000 or so.. If that much.. Not to mention I think $26,000 for an 03 w/ 24k is too high.. I'd pass if I were you.. Or get your self a SC for about $5,000 and you'll be faster than an 03 Cobra..

I feel your pain Dweb. Because you have a trade in, negotiation are in the dealerships favor. I recommend you put her back to stock if possible because they usually dont take aftermarket parts into account. If you go to a good dealership, they will usually give you trade-in value. Go to KBB.com to get an estimate.

That is too much for an 03 Cobra. I got mine for $22,000 with 20,000 miles.

I just got back without seeing my car they said they could go 14500. I told him i couldn't do that then he told me if the car was there they could do something else. I think i'm in love that car is sweet. I love the sound of the supercharger. I had a 96 GT and I put a vortec supercharger on that i loved the sound of that one. They had a sale price of 24999 on it now.

Your assuming he doesn't have a note, which he probably does, otherwise it'd be better to sell it private.

Anyways, that price is under book value, so I don't see how any of you can say that's too much. Maybe you guys got a good deal because the dealership got it for dirt cheap, or it's had a fender of 2 replaced in it's lifetime.

I don't know where you guys get these super deals on 03/04 Cobra's, I think a lot of it is BS to be quite frank. I searched in a 200+ mile radius and I could not find a single 03/04 Cobra going for anything less than book value, infact nearly all of them were $1,000 or more over book value because of market demand.

I picked mine up from a private sale. They guy was hurting for money so I got a deal.
