I think Ford sadly, already did that with the name. It took them about 40 years to build a Cobra branded version of the Mustang that was worthy of the name.

I still like the idea of side pipes for the EV version. You could have a 1000 Watt amplifier and a synthesizer to simulate the sound of the original car's exhaust note. Shucks, I'll bet you could even get software add ins to simulate a canyon road or a tunnel you are driving through.

Who knows how big this could get? Fuel injector resellers could offer various types of converters to accelerate the juice out of the battery to the electric motor while broadcasting a simulated staccato exhaust note through hidden speakers on the car. Shucks they could even offer heaters to heat the side pipes so they can still produce snake bites.

I think the potential here might just be unlimited — WOW!
