Possibly trading gto for cobra

4valvegt · November 3rd, 2010, 09:29 PM

I use to have a gt then went to a GTO and want to go back i am wondering if its worth trading my salvage title gto for an 01 cobra with 73k miles. Here is the link for the cobra 2001 mustang cobra let me know if you guys think this car is worth the price he has about the same asking price as my gto

Is it just a straight trade?

Seabee · November 8th, 2010, 12:06 AM

Straight trade is cool, if you can afford more, might as well put down enough for a termi

I agree with that statement. You can pick up a termi for 18k.

SWEET2KSTANG · November 8th, 2010, 02:38 AM

if the goat is fine, then dont down grade!

majorownage · November 8th, 2010, 04:23 AM

wow a straight trade? you would be getting the better deal

maxgst · November 8th, 2010, 12:58 PM

is it the 5.7 or 6.0 GTO? but I would trade it for a terminator cobra, they are worth about the same from what I have seen in craigslist...

BWAL · November 8th, 2010, 01:00 PM

you're asking $12,000 for your salvage GTO?

slwgt · November 8th, 2010, 01:03 PM

id say go big or go home and get a termi. youll be happier in the long run with a termi

I'm actually going to agree here.

The OP said his was a salvage title. A clean LS2 GTO goes for about the same price as a Termi.

LGHTNG02GT · November 8th, 2010, 05:15 PM

i'd say judging by the year his car is a 6.0 the GTO will outrun the 01 Cobra by a little. but the 01 is black...and it does have the nice interior lol. if its a straight trade i think i would do it.

Scott2001GT · November 8th, 2010, 09:22 PM

I dont think you can every down grade from a LS Grand Prix...I mean GTO.

Cobra would be a much better trade

coming up · November 8th, 2010, 10:13 PM

i would do it, anyday.

SWEET2KSTANG · November 10th, 2010, 01:33 AM

no way in hell is any ford (with exception of maybe a GT) better than a LSX

Hourofpain · November 10th, 2010, 01:17 PM

Keep the goat.
i could not stand going back to what little amnenities the sn95 and new edge cobra's have

Goats dont look good and are heavy.

I think the GT has proven itself time and time again it's better then a LSx.

ReverendDexter · November 10th, 2010, 02:04 PM

Only reason I can see to do this would be for title reasons.

I'd keep the GTO, myself, even if it was "only" a 5.7 car.

It's not terribly heavy compared to the new cars coming out. The 2011 GT in Vert trim weighs the same as the GTO ~3700 lbs.

NO WAY I would trade a 6.0 GTO for a '01 Cobra. It would have to be one nasty 01 Cobra you were getting (which is not the case here). GTO is faster, WAY better interior, 6.0. I wouldn't.
