Another thing about the 427 cobras, especially with the 427 or larger engine.

It is IMPOSSIBLE to do the engine justice in casual driving. You simply can't give it enough RPM to "clear the cobwebs". My engine at highway speeds always felt underutilized. Sure you can go around at 6000RPM in 3rd gear but that's not the purpose.

If I were to do another Cobra (which is possible after I sell the GT) it would be a 289 class car with a smaller engine so you can run it closer to the top end.
