I bought a slightly used SPF because I did not have the expertise to evaluate each prospective Cobra construction quality. There seemed to be plenty of used SPFs on the market and I could buy any of these with the knowledge that it had "standard" parts and put together in a factory. For sure there are "better" and more expensive Cobras out there, but with my limited experience and money, the SPF was the perfect choice for me. I knew I would not be able to tell the difference in performance between brands because I'm not a professional driver. VERY few of the people on this forum REALLY know enough to judge which Cobra handles better. I've been on Laguna Seca in a stock Dodge Omni driven by a semi-pro driver and he could make that Omni fly loaded with 4 people! I'm sure I could not keep up with him if I were in my Cobra! I do know my little SBF has way more power than I can handle. I wouldn't be surprised to find many of the Cobras on the race track are FF Cobras! Each manufacturer's Cobra is best suited for a group of owners. As far as the CSX, I would love to have one if for nothing else than to be able to say "Yes, ITS A REAL COBRA" when asked.
