Then too, my business partner has a '71 911S, and an early turbo 930, and one or the other is virtually always in the shop. I have driven them, both are handsome silver cars, but they drive like trucks, and are basically worn out old cars. If he wants to go in a sports car on a trip, he takes his drop-top C-5, so he can be sure of getting back home. I used to cruise in my '69 Dodge Charger R/T on the Autobahn at about 95-100 mph, but it would not make a complete stop from that speed, due to brake fade.

A few months ago, had the incredible honor and privilege of driving an original, unrestored, very perfect GT 350. What an experience, but it too drove and handled like a pickup. A friend two years ago bought a '65 Mustang GT, with only about 6,000 miles on it from new. Took me out, i wondered if cars of that era really rode like this.

Fortunately, they really don't make them like they used to, excepting our Cobra Replicas. For that we are greatful.
