With all due respect, I think you had no idea what a high performance or race car is all about. Corvettes are great (I've had mine for 22 years), and you are better off with it. Your expectations of a Cobra were purely romantic. They are hot, noisy, rough riding and they rattle. They are very expensive and not intended for profitable resale. So what else is new? I also noted that you don't work on your own cars, which is not conducive to owning a Cobra. When and if one of my kids or my girlfriend were to tell me they don't like my car (Cobra) I will tell them they don't have to ride in it. I have it for me! I didn't build it for profit or resale. If, God forbid, something happens and I have to sell it, then that's tough sh_t for me.
This guy had some tough luck I'm sure, but to dump a Kirkham for a Corvette tells me he wanted the Corvette all along.
