I find that I'm more attracted to what I consider "sleek" looking Cobras. They use the original wheel base (90"), and are lower to the ground than other replicas, have less exaggerated curves, and high cut wheel wells --- pretty much like the originals. They also have a nice rake to them (slightly lower in front) that gives them that 'mean' stance. ERA, Kirkham, Shelby are the ones that come to mind, for me. In factory photos, SPF's always look too highly stanced for my taste (though, I know the suspensions are adjustable). Don't get me wrong, love those SPF's!
