It needs to be driven. It's been waiting 15 years for it. I hope he at least started it every now and then :comando:

maybe it was set up for a longgggggggg nap :D

well then you need to buy it and wake it up :slap:

That's where the problem lies. Hopefully he started it up every once in a while and not just mothballed it. "Waking that car up" would blow every bearing and seal of that poor car. It would have been ok if he'd have taken it around the block every once in a while and let it warm itself up. Stale gas, 15 year old oil and grease. That stuff is probably like wax.....It's not good to let things sit like that.

that's why I said: " I hope he AT LEAST started it up every now and then "

Nice car. They could have at least put the center caps on for the pics. Even though its a collectors car they are asking too much.

16 miles is ridiculous but I see it as a waste. I know people like to collect cars but it's not what they were made for, there's no way you could enjoy a car like that by seeing it sit every day. As far as investments go cars suck, if he'd taken the money he paid for that and invested it correctly he'd have WAYYY more than 35 grand 15 years later.


A few years ago in Chicago i walked into a dealership and they had a '93 Cobra R #107 of 107 with like 20 miles on it all wrapped up sitting in the corner, I think he was asking 50g then for it...

It's better to upload the pics before the link broke, it's a brand new Cobra 1993 :

At $34,000.00 I'm not sure, at this price you can find a near new Cobra 03-04.

I bet he revved the shit out of it in the garage :hammer:

having a car like that is a good converstaion starter I guess.



edit: if you read the comments down further it says he just bought it from an auto museum... I'm assuming they drained all the fluids and closed everything back up :/

That is a VERY good point...
