Default Help buying a COBRA

Hello fellas I am new to this. I would some help on purchasing my first cobra. There is a 1999 cobra with 118k conv. Being sold at my local used dealership for 8800 and I wanted to know if that is to many miles or is the price to high. Also are conv. to expensive to maintain without a garage ( I live in California) It won't be a drag car just my daily driver if I was to buy it. Thanks for your help.

You need to be on a Mustang forum.

118,000 miles isn't too many if the owner took care of the car. Best thing to do would be to take the car to a separate shop for a pre purchase inspection (PPI) to have it properly checked out. If the car was beat on then 50k miles could be too many, but a well cared for car could be fine beyond 150k. At least get a Car Fax report to make sure that it hasn't been in a wreck and if you are lucky the service history.

Good luck with whatever direction you chose.

That is a lot of miles for a Cobra, but it is a great price! By it!!
