I think what you keep missing is that you have this crazy notion in your head that everyone is "Knocking" your car, when all everyone is doing is defending their own car.
It's kind of like a fat women that thinks that the "skinny" women are making fun of them and that the "skinny" women think that they are so wonderful. Then the fat women starts making "judgemental" comments to the "skinny" women and then the "skinny" women defend themselves by talking _hit on the fat women. The moral of the story is simple, the fat women brought this down on themselves because the "skinny" women not only didn't say anything negative to or about the fat women, but also the fact that the "skinny" women ALL think that they are fat.
All most are saying here on this forum is that they have their own vision of what they want in a Cobra and that it is totally wrong to assume that they all wanted a "original" or "real" Cobra and just couldn't afford it. I have said that I don't know what brand of Cobra I will own next and to be honest I was waiting to see the new CAV Cobra before I made my decision. As I have said before, my first Cobra was going to be either a ERA or a new CSX4000 Shelby and I changed my mind because other than the Cobra shape I wanted to change everything from the wheels to putting in a stroker 385 series engine.
Both the CSX4000 series and ERA "HIGHLY RECOMMEND" the 427 (or 428) engine and leaving the car "original" looking.
The point is simple. I didn't have to "settle" with the Superformance Cobra because of money or any other issue, I picked the Superformance Cobra because it was what I was looking for. The only car I couldn't afford was an "original".
Imagine how boring the Cobra would be if they all looked the same. The public like the Cobra's because they are fast, awesome looking and there are so many different styles.
