Q: 1995 Ford Mustang COBRA-R, what would be a fair purchase/sell price?
This car is a TRUE cobra R. 1 owner. Only 250 made in 1995. The only down side to the car is that the owner was forced into having to use it as a daily driver for a bit so it has approx 40,000 miles. If you know about the car you know its not one you can find pricing at cars.com etc. The car is owned by a close friend of mine who is going to possibly have to sell it, so im trying to find info for him…

A: Reasonably? I wouldn’t offer more than around $5000 for it.

You may not consider it a fair sell price, but fair also takes into account the buyer’s idea of fair. And $5k sounds fair to me.

Even if you could price it out via cars.com, or KBB, etc….those are suggested prices…not the prices that people will actually pay.

Though, I suppose you’ll pick the answer that has the highest dollar value. So….I’ll offer you $45,000 for it. At that point, it’s no longer the least bit fair to me, but it’ll satisfy your wallet.

I like the guy you chose on the other one though. All hyped up about a car. So it’s a Cobra-R? Looks like a Mustang to me.

A $5,000 Mustang. :)

Q: Will these wheels fit my 2003 Ford Explorer SPORT 4WD?
Hi guys, I own a 2003 Ford Explorer Sport 4WD V6. I’ve been contemplating on getting those Cobra R Replica’s, but they are quite expensive for my college ass budget! So I’ve been looking around for some cheap new/ used rims. I came across these rims called “Maxxim Wonders”. They yield the similar specs as the Cobra R’s and they are quite nice!

1) I was just wondering if these will fit my explorer?

The rims are 18×8.5 although the width is 8J (what’s that mean?). Offset is 15mm. 5×114.3. Seller claims it to fit the Ford Mustang, the Nissan 350z, and the Infiniti G35 coupe.

2) Will they be strong enough for my truck?

Thanks in advance!

A: That all depends on what you really want to do. I wouldn’t consider going 4 wheeling across a rock infested course. You may not want to put them on a Race Track car. But every day driving shouldn’t be a problem.

Q: What car is better overall for what i want to do?
i have a ‘94 pontiac grand am se coupe that has a lot of problems and i might be getting a new car for christmas and was wondering which car is better between these:
2006-2007 Subaru Impreza WRX STI
1994-2004 Ford Mustang GT/Cobra
2005 Dodge Neon SRT4
2002 Chevrolet Camaro SS
2002 Pontiac Trans Am/Firebird Formula
2005-2006 Pontiac GTO
2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STI
1993 Mazda RX7
2006 Misubishi Lancer Evolution IX MR
or possibly if u have any other suggestions for a car (would prefer it to be used because i looked at a lot of new cars and didn’t like them as much)
the requirements that i have are:
powerful enough to beat other vehicles for money in a race (drag races with rolling starts/dead starts and possibly road races, but mostly drag) to help pay for different things (insurance, gas, upgrades, maintenance, ext.)
reliable/good quality
low mileage
good looking
lots of performance upgrades/aftermarket parts available
manual transmission
not too old (<19 yrs) and not more than $35,000 (i don't have the money my grandparents do so don't say stuff like get this and buy all of these things for it with the left over money)

thank you for taking ur time to read my question and if u are answering it thank you again
and i would like ur honest opinion about these cars and any others u have suggested or r going to suggest and please be specific about the cars u suggest

A: At this stage, used 2008 Evo Xs can be purchased for as little as $32,000, and they can put the motor on just about anything on your list.

But the MazdaSpeed3 might make another interesting choice.. In factory trim, it’s down about 30 horses and 20 lb-ft of torque. But it’s also 400 lbs lighter.

Brand new, it’s cheaper than a used Evo, but there still are plenty of tuner parts.

A: If your going to race and your going to leave your car stock the best choice there would be the Evo 8 by far. If your only going to be dragging then you could go with the camaro or the mustang (but only the cobra or a mach 1) or rx-7. Not the Neon or pontiac.

If you really have 40 grand to put down I would get the evo or the rx7. Theres lots of upgrades for the evo. If you do find a nice 2nd or 3rd generation rx7, then take out the rotary engine and put in an ls1. The v8 engine in a light body car, with a cold air intake a performance exhaust and some proper tuning you will be able to compete with almost anything.

But if your looking for a daily driver as well then just choose the Evo 8.

A: Wow, sorry bro you have gotten a lot of totally inaccurate answers here. If anyone out there wants to sell me a 1995 cobra R for $5,000 or $10,000 or even $20,000 email me right now and I will buy it from you today. The lowest amount you should be asking is $40,000. For the people out there that obviously dont know what a cobra R is, it is the top of the line mustang. Ford took the suspension and brakes out of there professional race cars and put it in the Cobra R. The Cobra R makes 300hp and 365tq all engine. It is a street legal race car. It has a race spoiler and front air splitter. It creates as much down force as todays corvette z06’s do. It came from the factory with everything that adds weight removed. It has no back seats, no a/c, no radio. There are very few cars on the road today that are faster around a track then the Cobra R is. No to mention that there were only 250 1995 Cobra R’s made. I would say ask $45,000 and go from there. I would imagine you end up getting between $33,000 and $38,000 for it just because of the high miles.

Additional Info—-
the 95 cobra R did not have a 5.0L engine it had a windsor 5.8L v8 engine.

P.S.
Your friend does not happen to live in Arizona or anywhere close does he?
