MM is right... even with cars that are 100% built by the genius elves in New Britain, or Provo, or anywhere else. You still better be ready to work on them -- I would guess that over half of the guys on this site have 25 years or more of experience monkeying with cars and a lot of them actually make their living doing it. Most of us started in high school. But don't let that stop you -- if you really want a Cobra then you won't be happy with anything else, and you can learn how to work on them pretty quickly. But a Cobra is not for everybody, so think it over carefully... and don't worry about backing out -- 98% of the guys that make posts like yours never end up with a Cobra in their garage anyway.
