2003 Ford Mustang Svt Cobra Convertible 2-door 4.6l, Dsg With Chrome Wheels. on 2040-cars

First, thank you for taking the time to examine my 2003 Dark Shadow Gray Cobra convertible.  In truth this is my second go-around with one of these, and I’m not prepared to state it’ll be my last.  :)  It helps to have a great friend who owns Maximum Velocity Performance in San Antonio.  Too bad I never let Tracy modify the engine!  Please note I’ve not been one to beat on my cars, and I purchased this convertible as a cruiser, if you will.  I guess with middle-age does come some wisdom!

So…to the nuts-and-bolts of the auction.  If one is looking at a 2003 Cobra then it’s usually safe to say that he or she already knows about the options and specifics.  The car does have factory chrome wheels which are neither rashed nor peeling.  It will also come with the regular floor mats as well as the Cobra-Embroidered show-mats.  Beyond that it’s about condition and history…

I purchased the car in September of 2010 with 17,307 miles after hiring an outside inspection company to put the car on a lift and examine it.  The car currently sits with only 41k miles, as until recently I lived two blocks from work.  With a promotion came a commute and these cars can be harsh to drive in rush-hour traffic.  I’ve elected to purchase a more comfortable SHO and I don’t have enough free time to enjoy a second car.  History of the Cobra shows it has never been in an accident. 

If I forget some details please do not hesitate to ask questions as undoubtedly I’ll leave something out.

No front license plate bracket.  :)

In the nearly four years I’ve been the owner there have been no breakdowns.  New brake pads and rotors were just put on this past month.  A drained battery led to an inevitability amongst Cobras…the alternator was going, so it was replaced along with the battery.  The TOB (Throwout Bearing) was starting to chatter so I ordered an entirely new clutch assembly from American Muscle and took the car to Maximum Velocity.  Since I was taking the transmission down I’d intended on just putting the new clutch in since the car had 41k miles.  The mechanic stated the clutch still had 20-30k miles left before it needed to be replaced so I just left it in the car. 

***The car will come with a completely new clutch assembly still in the box as part of the sale.  My gift to you.***

There are two “mods” on the car, such as they are:

1)       I did go ahead and have the adjustable clutch quadrant put in when I had the transmission down.

2)      The stock exhaust system was replaced with Borla Stingers, as the car needed a more pronounced note.

That’s it.  Never tuned, never pullied, not even a cold air intake.  Beyond the sound note I wanted, the car was to retain its stock profile.

Imperfections or wear…

Keeping in mind the car is in excellent mechanical working condition both under the hood and out with all possible items functioning, there are no perfect cars.  I’ve made every attempt to show wear in the pictures.  A little wear on the drivers seat, a paint chip on the hood, a little hazing on the headlights, a tiny nick behind the driver’s door…that’s it…normal wear for a twelve year old vehicle.  New tires were put on the car when I purchased it, so while they still have some miles remaining on them, they aren’t new.  Nitto 275’s are on the wheels.

If there are any questions or inquiries please do not hesitate to ask.  The car is for sale locally so if my price is met the car can be sold. 

Thanks for looking.
