Okay, i think i've finally thought about it enough, and i've decided to sell it. I don't hardly ever have the time to drive it anymore, and it's not doing me any good just sitting in my garage except giving me bragging rights, so here it is.
It is a 2003 SVT Mustang Cobra, #796 of 8394 with a build date of 6/21/02, so it was one of the very first ones built. It currently has 34,000 miles on it. I am the second owner, i bought it with 6000 miles on it on October 4, 2004 from a man outside detroit, dearborn to be exact, that was going to be having another child with his wife and needed to sell it. The car was also signed under the hood by the Detroit Red Wings in 2003 when they won the Stanley cup. I have all the original receipts including the window sticker and everything. The car is in immaculate shape, if you ask anyone around here, no one has ever seen the car dirty. It is not driven in the rain or snow, and it never goes out if the temperature is below 50. I hand wash it every time, I never take it through a car wash.
And now for the mods. It has a 2.8" blower pulley(still have stock), Diablo sport chip, Steeda Tri-Ax shifter(still have stock also), Steeda dual hook clutch quadrant, Steeda firewall adjuster, Centerforce Dual Friction clutch, MAC offroad X-pipe(also have Steeda X-pipe with high flows), Steeda full catback exhaust(still have stock), Steeda 100mm auxilary idler pulley, Steeda cold air intake, Steeda 3 bolt camber caster plates, Steeda strut tower brace, Steeda sport springs (still have originals as well), Billetflow IRS brace, Goodyear Gatorback belt, Boost bypass mod, Nitto 555R 315 drag radials, Steeda IRS bolts in back so you can run a 10.5 inch rim, all tuned by Livernois Motorsports in Dearborn. I've also got silverstar bulbs in the front headlights and foglights. The car has somewhere around 500 rwhp, and it gets up and goes pretty good. I have a dyno graph from a long time ago when the car was getting tuned that shows about 460hp and 470ftlbs, but this was without the idler pulley so the supercharger belt was slipping, and also with the stock clutch slipping. As soon as i got the car home and changed those two things, there was a huge definite increase in power.
It's never been in any type of collision or accident ever, and has never had any sort of body work done to it whatsoever. It's also never been to a track. I have no idea what type of time the car will run, but judging by times that I've played around with another friend of mine from around here that has a '03 Cobra, I'd say it'll run a low 11 if you could get it out of the hole decently well. People always make fun of me because I drive it like a grandma, but I know it's fast and I have no need to prove it to myself. It has a completely clear carfax. It's been meticulously maintained as well. I do all my oil changes and maintainence on my own because I don't trust anyone else to touch the car, there's too many people that don't know what the hell they're doing in this world. I keep a complete record of every time i change something on the car, that way i know exactly when something was done. I always run Mobile 1 Full synthetic 5W-20 because it seems to be some of the best oil i've ever used.
I'm asking $23,000 for it.
**PS: PM me and i'll send you the complete VIN so you can run a carfax if you like, or check insurance and whatnot.**
