Your price around the high $40k is very optimistic and there are better examples Cobra's on offer.
I think that Cobra is badass, and I bet it drives awesome, seeing who's selling it, I think he knows a thing or two about Cobra's, just saying...

How exactly did you come to the conclusion that this car isn't to your standards ??
From photos Please by all means humor us..
And saying that, how about you post some pictures of the amazing quality of your car so we can judge the standard that we should be building to!!
Craig...Good luck with the sale of your car, some of us appreciate how individual these cars are and opinions as they say are like assholes..Everyone has one!!!

Just to clarify....it's not my car that's for sale....

It's Craig's Cobra.

I wouldn't even TRY to sell my old shi! Box....not while Craig's beautiful Arntz is for sale...it's awesome !!

That should do it !!!

Cheers,
Warren

Guys, thanks for the comments. You're making me blush... In my first post, I tried to make sure people saw that the car's age and far from perfect appearance were things that I love about the car, rather than something to hide from.

Wazza, you're a classic!!! A few of us were commenting the other day about how your black Cobra simply never showed any sign of ageing despite all the years and miles. We expect nothing less from your incredible new car!

Wrong form and quality is not to my standards.
This post reminds me of that turd in the toilet yesterday, it was a lot of turd!
Your price around the 15 second mark to read your post is very optimistic and there are better examples on offer.

This w*nker is clearly a troll or a mole so the earlier we all ignore him the better. Maybe the site moderators could step in here & do something.

No need for moderators to step in here, life has already dealt this individual a healthy dose of iamamoronitis which has clearly manifested into ima****tard disease.

Natural selection can be cruel at times ........ I just thought that they hung out at modifymykia.com , clearly this one slipped through.

Default Cobra

Geez Craig, sub 50, live pipes, carbd, cheap rego, nice body and ALL LEGAL!!!

With those boxes all ticked there is nothing comparable.

Oh how good it must be to enjoy being pulled over by the boys in blue or dot and know everything is LEGIT. No post rego mods.

Sad to see u selling it as I really enjoyed u and ya dad cruising in convoy.

I guess once its sold the new owner will learn that the best hookers are always lefties!!!!

Regards spookypt

To those who CC forum members who cannot respect anothers view point is highly regrettable.
It is a free forum to express one's opinion and please do not dictate to me what I can say or not say with your colourful language..
If you regard this Arntz as the Cobra to buy then GO FOR IT.
Therefore open your wallets , buy this classic and STOP DREAMING !

If you're looking for respect here mate....I think you're going about it the wrong way.
It's just really poor form to bag the crap out of anyone's car on an open forum.

I know you'd like everyone to respect you're views on this......
and don't want to be thought of as a complete Dic......

But I think you have under estimated yourself !!

You sound complete to me.

Cheers bud.

It is important to be positive or silent on these issues. It is interesting to look at various forums and how etiquette is managed. I also found that in selling my car that the CCCA forum threads were all looked at by potential buyers. Warrens and others comments were extremely helpful and appreciated.

Losing that first "State of Origin" hasn't helped !
2013 State of Origin series - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bloody cockroaches !!

We'll be happier in a few weeks when order in the universe is restored.

Ok its on you didn't remind me so as I open my next bottle of refreshment "Let me say this" I believe there are one or two cars in Qld that are not up to my standard" so there Bring it on as Leyton would say. You blokes have got too much time rolling around in the sun. Hey Bernie has gone up so I rest my case.

Now having too much time doing nothing leads to such situations as we have just seen happening to Just Cobra. You blokes should be ashamed of yourselves. there Ive said it!!
Poor guy just happens to have an opinion and look what happens. MAJOR DRAMA!!!!
Order in the universe . You've got a guy up there building the Titanic again. Has he no sense of history?
If your looking for a fight come down here on Nov 2nd to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the formation of the Cobra Club. I would like to say "details on our website" but they are not. We are working very slowly to fix that one.
Anyway if you use that sort of language on me I am going to tell my mom. So there
