There it is.
You're only mission right now should be to find a way to drive one - any make, any model. Get to a Superformance dealership. Get to a local classic car dealer ship, or a club meet. Somehow you have to figure out how to get a test drive.
That's what did it for me. That first test drive at a Superformance dealership was all it took. I was on a road trip at the time, and took a 2 hour detour to get to Ross, Ohio. The sales guy was awesome, the car well you know. He took me out for a drive, then I asked if I could take the wheel for a bit. I spent 5 hours at the dealership, and I almost bought a used car in inventory on the spot. Then, the techs brought in a brand new car just off it's first test run and I was weak in the knees.
I was bit, and there was no question about it. I told the salesman thanks and that I would be back. I'll bet they hear that one one hundred times a day. I drove home 6 hours with a smile that just wouldn't quit. I did my homework here, saved my pennies and ordered my new car 1 year later. You know the sales person remembered me. He's a good guy. There a lot of stellar folks in this hobby, and most people remember me.
That single test drive changed my life. This car changed my life. The friends I have made, the fun I've had - a Cobra really is more that just a car, it's a life changer.
So - Get a test drive.
