Most likely buying this tomorrow...What do yall think?


Ive got the bill of sale and the loan, I just have to drive to ATL in the morning to see the car/drive it. What do you guys think? I know it has almost 70K on the clock, but it is in great shape.

Oh yeah, the guy Im buying it from doesnt charge any dealer fees or anything...just sales tax. So I'm looking at just over 21K out the door.

Doesnt matter to me. I used to have a 98 cobra vert and loved it. The only other Termi's in the area are silver and not in as good shape, plus they dont have that badass t76 on them...

I figure with the forged internals these things will run as long as you maintain them pretty much. Plus its got some other sweet goodies in it. As long as I like the way it drives and there are no surprises when I see it in person, its a done deal!

At least this one already has the steeda IRS brace...I guess when pushing over 600hp you would have to have the IRS brace

BWAL, you seen the car? Or know where in town it is located? If something happens with this deal or I see something about it that I dont like, I will definately check this one out.

Thanks!

Haha, funny you should say that. My old cobra was black and that was the only thing I didnt like about it. Sure, they look like sex when they are clean, but 10 minutes later they are covered in dust and every bit of dirt shows up on them. It drives me crazy because Im pretty anal about keeping my car clean. I do love the way they look though, freshly cleaned.

Also, in order to keep my wheels, I need to buy from a dealer and trade in. That is part my agreement on this car. The wheels were a gift from my mom and fiance and I dont want to get rid of them if I dont have to

I don't like verts but man the hellion sure makes up for the missing roof. I think that if it drives good and everything works is a nice deal.

Get the tuned checked to make sure everything is good before you start driving it hard. You don't wanna blow that engine

As of now, there are no cats on the car. With the current setup can you put cats on it? Its a 4" downpipe into a Y pipe to the catback. Im guessing it wont pass GA emissions as is. How much would it cost to have an exhaust shop weld in some cats?

Or could it possible pass if they dont visually inspect for cats? It is not throwing any codes so I may try to get it to pass before worrying about the cats.
