No, I think that's a fair $45k car. But, there seems to be a trend in Cobra pricing to move your price higher after it doesn't sell at a a lower price. Now frankly I don't quite understand the rationale behind that, but there's probably some psychological marketing nuance that simply escapes me.  |

$145K, yeah, and I just saw a flying pig go by. That price is SO far out of reality it's beyond a joke. It's well into the range of the seller being a complete idiot.
You can buy a genuine SHELBY for less! Agreed, drop the "1" and it's in the ball park for price.

A dealer here in Orange County was trying to sell a forced induction Special Edition SPF that had both Roush and Shelby signatures for $125k about a year ago. After reducing the price every month, that same car was recently listed for $65k.
Oh well, all they need is one sucker!

The Cobra was previously owned by Michael Dunn. Rumor has it that he used it to chase Artemus and James.  |

Well, mine doesn't have knockoffs, but I'll deal at $80K.. Might even consider offers in the $65K range.
What is this guy thinking? It looks like a nice motor, but not that nice!

You see this strategy employed so often. In fact, it's currently being employed by one of our well-known CC members, but I won't mention his name.  |

My gosh you're right. Now that you've pointed it out to me, it does seem like he has been moving his asking price, as Johnny Horton would sing, "North, to Alaska...."  |

It's something like a 45% premium over his lowest price. Obviously no rush to sell right now. |
