Market commentary
Sold by RM at Boca Raton with the factory 428 under the hood in 2005 for $535,000 which was appropriate at the time, as is this price today. Having the performance of the 427 is a plus for those who appreciate performance while having the original 428 on an engine stand mollifies most Cobra purists who decry modifications and updates. It is an exceptional car bought for an exceptional, but realistic, price.
