And, I'm not dialing it up nor will I dial it down a "freaking notch." IMO, you seem to me to be defending SPF prices, which is fine, but the OP must be aware of your inherent bias. You can admit or not, I don't care. You're an SPF owner, so logically you will defend the brand, just like I would defend the Kirkham brand.
In general, Cobra replica prices are soft, because ERA, CSX, BDR, SPF among others, are still building them. There's no supply constraint other than economic conditions and those aren't very good right now for many areas of the country. I'm just talking about buying ANY Cobra replica that is asking in the $50,000-$60,000 range for mid-$40,000. It can and has been done.
All the %'s you state are just guesses, since none of us have any hard data. But I'll try to remember to post here a real result when I come across one in the future.

Last I heard defending anything as well as " inherent bias" requires a few opinions , you seem to be drawing a lot of conclusions from a couple questions .
You're right about lack of hard data, which is why when somebody mentions a price range, high or low, I figured maybe I'd query if that is fact or opinion based.......you know, to gain facts.
