Wink What's truly humorous...

Is the number of people that think my West Coast is an "original" cobra.. with the full width rollbar and the huge rear wheel wells, etc... but the only people I have met that did not like it were those who "felt" upstaged compared to their cars.. (most recently a viper owner. He left the sports bar within seconds of our arrival, after giving me a wierd look.. It was a great looking viper so the reaction was silly, I supposed he realized mine was faster or something, and felt upstaged ? )

Man, the personal auto sure is an ego thing for some folks...
