Not bad looking, the front bumper looks a little off in the pics, Like it doesn't line up right with the headlights and looks to stick out where it meets the fenders at the wheel wells. I have seen lower mileage cobras for that price and less.

"They don't call these cars "Terminators" for nothing...in stock trim they make 390 hp...this one is making around 600 whp and it capable of being turned up to over 800."

200 more HP? fom what? it has a turbo and nos already...
i know it's possible... but I wonder...
cost of mods for 800 + the cost of the cobra = cost of other cheaper cobra + mods needed

wait what? Wheres the turbo? i missed it, i saw a lysholm twin screw supercharger, but no turbo. And also, the 'nos' you probly think you saw, was the braided fuel lines, notice how they go to the fuel rails and not the inake tract? And fyi, 'nos or NOS' is a brand name owned by Holley, not to be confused with the 'naws' of F&F movies. However a better name for it would be Nitrous or N20.

i swear i saw the blue and red NOS (that's why i said NOS by brand...) hose splitters, but i could be wrong as i don't know everything. So don't bust my balls on that one, mmk?

All I have to say is be carefully buying cobras or even cars with that much power to begin with. It looks like it's good and done right but my last cobra made 650rwhp with all supporting mods but the guy never told me he beat the absolute piss out of it till it was getting ready to shit out.. Then sold it.. To me.

the "nos" lines you are seeing are the AN lines and fittings.

I like it, but there are lower mileage Terminators out there for the same price.

But if I were you, I would check it out first.

x2 the paint on the front doesnt look the best either and with those miles I think thats alittle high. Yeah it def has power adder upgrades and such but the car looks like its def been to the track before and imo for that kinda money you could get one with alittle less miles and less mods done to it. Which with these cars, unless its someone on the forums or that you know, and you know how the owner is and the life the car has had, the less mods is DEF the way to go. Plus with that car being at an auto group with all those mods done to it there is probably a reason for it. In my experience the cobras with mods done and still having lower miles in good condition are usually kept by regular owners and if they are sold they are usually sold to a person particularly members on forums that know the hardwork and treatment of the car from previous owner, not traded in to a dealership.

Id def probably pass on it atleast for that money.

that thing must be an absolutely beast to drive around, and like he said very well capable of more hp easily, not that you would ever need it.
