Patients and cash = huge saving in this market. Put yourself in the sellars position, the majority of time they are located out of state which means you have to pay shipping, then comes the trust part, when does he get the money, when you get the title? you get the car? damage during transit, how long will it take you to sell it, have you forgot about the titling fiasco in some instances. Remeber you will have your garage space and cash, he has space in the garage he wants and wants money for another toy. Give yourself a year to find the car you want, might come up next week maybe in the fall, 75% of the fun is the anticipation, these cars are monsters, no windows, ac, heater, you could run down to your lexus dealer and buy a SC430 (convertible) 2003 with 30K miles for what you are paying for a cobra. Cash is and always will be KING. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT RUSH INTO IT!!!!!!!, I have to admit the 38K for the reg had at Austin last week as described above says alot, read between the lines, if he is willing to sell that one brand spanky new then he will probably duplicate at another time, factor that in when you are trying to sell one, because as you know buyers research the heck out of these things. If the one talked about above did have 17 wheels and a FMS engine I would not touch a used one for over 34K, heck I might call reg myself and buy that one as long as it is as described above and newer than chassis 300.
