That's what I'm trying to tell you. If I owned an original, it would never leave my possession. Heck, I wouldn't even let anyone else drive my CSX4000 car. First, they're simply too valuable and irreplaceable. Second, they are the worst handling car you'll ever drive, and a newbie driving off MY $1M+ CAR that has NEVER DRIVEN ONE BEFORE, will almost certainly kill my car at the same time he kills himself. It's not worth the risk!!!
It is also almost certain that the insurance policy on that same Cobra would forbid renting it anyway. The agreed value policy on my Ford GT had such a clause, and it wasn't worth anything near what a Cobra would be covered for.
I don't understand why you're hung up on a "daily rental price". If it were say it was a new car, and like a Ford Focus, you took your $1M+ Shelby Cobra to a Ford dealer for a service and it was still under warranty, you're not going to get a Cobra as a loaner. You'll get a Ford Focus for $25/day.
I sense you're trying to collect some "loss of use", but the reality is that even the new buyer was simply going to park it in a garage under show lights and never drive it.
