Given that reproduction Cobras outnumber real cars by a factor of maybe 20:1, it's understandable that people might ask the question. I get it while driving in southern California all the time. It doesn't bother me. I respond truthfully, but often add "Seriously, what is the point of even asking the question? Do you think if it were a copy I'd tell you? Of course not. I'd say "Oh yeah, this baby's REAL," like - be honest - most replica owners do. If the person asking the question really wants to know, they'll follow up with the right questions. If they're just asking for the hell of it, they'll usually leave it alone.
