Default Why do people sell their Cobra?

I think people find that they look good sound good etc, downside is road driving they aren't great and this can depends on how the driving position is optimized. There are much nicer cars to drive available but they are not a cobra and don't have that appeal.
Regarding racing a lot of cobra enthusiasts think first time up they are going to play merry hell at the racetrack with all the hp etc and fall flat on their faces, these cars can take a lot of work and development to get doing good lap times. I guess thats par for the course for any car speed costs.
I am on my fourth cobra and have unfortunately sold previous cars and am now finding it harder to complete my current and last build.

TO ME THERE IS NOTHING BETTER THAN SEEING A COBRA CRUISING DOWN THE ROAD, THAT SILHOUETTE IS SOMETHING ELSE.
