This mint, showroom condition 2001 Zinc Yellow Cobra convertible has ONLY 3,872 miles !  This is one of only 316 Zinc Yellow convertibles built in 2001 and is build #1812 out of a total of 3,384 cobras produced in 2001.  It is completely stock with the only three options offered; 17" polished aluminum wheels, front floor mats, and the rear single wing spoiler.  It comes with the standard convertible boot.  The car has always been garaged and has never been driven in either rain or snow.  This is strictly a Sunday driver.  It looks and drives as if it just came off the truck.  It is perfect in every way; no chips, no dings, no dents - looks brand new.  The engine still has the original chalk marks.  I have several original build sheets, all the SVT paperwork, all the original window stickers, along with the history of its build.  The interior is charcoal grey with leather-trimmed front sport seats with Alcantara inserts.  

The 32-valve, 4.6 L, 281-cube V8 engine is rated at 320hp.  It has an aluminum block with a forged-steel crank.  The engine's aluminum alloy pistons have shallow skirts and a special friction-reducing coating on their surfaces; the compression ratio is 9.85:1.  The intake system begins with the throttle body which is made up of twin 57 mm bores; next in line is an 80 mm mass air sensor.  The tumble port cylinder head valve sizes are 37 mm on intake and 30 mm on exhaust.  The engine employs a distributorless, coil-on-plug ignition system.  The engine is hand-assembled at Ford's Romeo, Michigan engine plant by two-person teams on a separate and dedicated line.  In addition, standard is all-speed traction control system(TCS) as well as IRS.

I am the original owner .  This is one of a kind.  The oil has been changed every year with synthetic Mobil 1 regardless of mileage.  You will not find a more pristine, low mileage 2001 Cobra anywhere.  The pictures really do not do justice to how it looks and runs.  The car cannot be picked up by the new owner until payment funds have been cleared or have been verified by the bank.  The car is being sold as is and with no warranty.  

The car is being sold locally. As such, I can end the auction at any time.

Please e-mail me with any questions.  Thanks for looking.

Ford jumps back in the water with marinized 6.2L V8

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Nameplates like the Mercury Mariner and Lincoln Navigator aside, Ford hasn't offered a marine engine in over two decades. But through a new partnership with one of the biggest names in the business, the Dearborn-based automaker is dipping its proverbial toes back in the water.
Announced yesterday at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the new partnership between Ford Component Sales and Indmar Marine Engines will see the 6.2-liter V8 from the F-150 SVT Raptor and F-Series Super Duty marinized for use in boats.
The largest privately owned inboard gasoline marine engine manufacturer in the world, Indmar has been in the business for 43 years, and figures the Ford V8 will be just what watersport enthusiasts are looking for to tow waterskiers and wakeboarders to their hearts' content.

Ford recalling select Taurus, Explorer and Lincoln MKS models over fuel tanks

Sun, 31 Mar 2013

Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.

Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.
