digginfool-

I don't own a Cobra yet, but I have been looking at them for sale on Cobra Country since early 2008, as well as this site for the past several months. I have also been following these forum discussions since last fall. SO... like you, I have been wondering the same thing regarding Cobras for sale that are barely broken in.

Since Harley's have been mentioned, I'll state that I owned a brand new one back in 1985, Low Rider with drag pipes (straight and loud). I put 17,000 miles on it in three years. No cross country trips to Sturgis, no trips to Bike Week at Daytona, just weekends in the SC/NC mountains, maybe 50-150 miles at a time, and the rest of the time it was parked in my living room.

I think many very plausible reasons have been mentioned here as to why there are so many for sale with extremely low miles. Beyond that, follow these discussions on this forum for several months as was mentioned earlier, and also look (and LISTEN) at/to youtube videos of Cobra owners driving their cars, and look at lots of them. I love 'em, but I don't know if I will ever own one.
