As someone who is seriously looking for a Cobra (with cash in hand) I feel I have something to add. First, I cannot imagine buying a car sight unseen on ebay. With all the brands out there, some out of business, its very difficult to choose because a buyer usually has no idea who assembled the car or how compitent they were. Also with these turnkey cars like SPF its very tempting to just purchase a new one. I can get a new SPF complete car with a year warranty for 52k. I see the same cars used for 53k up. I am not sure whats going on there. I have limited my search to New England because I don't want to waste someones time in Texas because I cannot easly get there to see the car. When I started seriously cruseing the forums looking for a car I noticed the Spring Fling in Ohio and made resvervations. I feel it could be a good opportunity to see many Cobras and view a few cars for sale all in one place. In defense of the buyers, I don't know anyone thats wants to pay more for anything than they have to so I think calling them bottom feeders is a bit strong. I think there are many dreamers on both sides of the sale. Buyers and owners. The value of anything is what a willing seller will accept from a willing buyer. Personally I am not looking to insult anyone. I don't want to steal anyones car just buy a a great Cobra at a fair price. Enjoy
