Indeed this is strange - and a lot of bidders too - just goes to show you - some people have no clue as to the value of anything. Interesting to note - this shows up under "AC Cobra's" and not "Shelby Cobras"...

PSB 05-15-2003 07:20 PM

Either there's something fishy going on, or the high bidder has more money than brains!

Here's so,ething else on the same AC Cobra search - an SPF can't bring $30k?

Is it not possible for the owner, or say a friend bid up the price of the car? Gonna have to double -"Double Venom's prices if this is real! :)

luke-44 05-15-2003 07:28 PM

yes - eBay has had numerous reported cases of bidders rigging prices by having a friend bid up a price - highly illegal of course, but in this case their appears to be over 10 indivdual bidders which would be very hard to pull off...not to mention the seller will owe ebay large for the fees

Cal Metal 05-15-2003 07:38 PM

If that car is worth $50K, the Kirkhams should be able to sell their cars all day long at $250K.

KobraKarl 05-15-2003 07:42 PM

Well I dont know whats going on .......but I smell something rotten

REAL 1 05-15-2003 07:44 PM

Wonder whether Supersnake thinks the buyer of that car qualifies as a pigeon?

Boy, I'd love to see the look on the buyers face when he finally figures out the REAL value of this car! :LOL:

This must mean that the value of my car increased over 5x's. :LOL:

:LOL:

Go figure!!! 'Cause I sure can't! e-bay is one strange market place.

Worth it!!
 
It probably is worth the price since it has an "original" COBRA radio in the dash.


Just kidding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Must be for 3
 
This is one of 3 included in the bidding. Or would that be 5 (Factory that is)?

Wow....

Zderf
:confused:

ssnake 05-15-2003 09:24 PM

I really didn't purchase mine as a hedge...

Wonder if this being at a dealer is coincidental to the price?

What was W. C. Fields famous phrase?

Goooo EBAY!!!

:D

I cannot believe what we are looking at? :confused:

A nice Cobra yes, but way past what I believe should be selling for around $25-30K. Are we all missing something?

Turk 05-16-2003 12:46 AM

Market is back up!

One Shelby CSX Cobra with Sideoiler for sale, with no miles....

$183,000 delivered..

TURK

Evan, damn it you were right all along!

mr bruce 05-16-2003 02:53 AM

Prime example of Shill bidding. Wake up folks, the "K" car on there a few weeks ago didn't even get 1 bid.

DAVID GAGNARD 05-16-2003 05:42 AM

Any vehicle be it a Cobra to a Yugo or anything else for that matter is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it on a given day. NADA or "blue book" values are only a guide,and that changes from region to region. With that said I think this is a very nice FFR,but I personally would not give 70k for it..... Maybe the market is starting to rise again,maybe just a fluke,or maybe just someone with too much money,either way I'm sure the seller is realllllll happy right now,assuming the sale does go thru and it is not someone just bidding to be bidding and will back out when all is said and done.

JWheaton 05-16-2003 06:17 AM

They could have at least put real knockoff on istead of bolton wheels :CRY:

I've got a bridge to sell to the person who buys that car! :eek: :LOL:

casaleenie 05-16-2003 06:21 AM

Seller will make the shipping arrangements... The buyer will pay all shipping charges... (That's getting it twice for the same money)

Is that an original FFR????


So much for "you can't cheat an honest man"

I was going to drive the Cobra to the DVSF in June but I'm not sure I want to take my "million dollar" car on the road.

Bill K.,

Maybe someones wife or girlfriend trying to do a nice thing for her
guy and surprise him. I'm sure we'll be reading about this transaction at a future date...

David....

I'm going to go with the "fluke" and "maybe just someone with too much money" theory on this one...

The seller is placing another order right now for a $12K FFR kit as we speak... :JEKYLHYDE :JEKYLHYDE
