That's a pretty cheap ticket for the Cobra experience. $14k? Do some common sense stuff: have the DMV run the registration before you buy it (it may be stolen); have a mechanic do a compression test and give the engine a look-over to make sure it's sound; check the title to see if it's been wrecked; and, have the mechanic put it on a lift and check the brakes/suspension for any obvious problems.

As a Street Beast, don't expect much help from the manufacturer is you run into issues. I'd talk to some other Street Beast owners.

But, heck, for $14k? Most Cobra owners are in their Cobras $50k+. The paint job alone, in CA, would be $10k.

Have fun,
DD
