Default Old Corvette vs New Cobra

I owned my '65 Corvette roadster for 40 years 327/365. No frills car, radio delete, no P/S or P/B's. factory off the road exhaust and a 4-speed. If it could only talk.!!! I missed my chance in early '68 to buy a '67 real, dual quad 427 Cobra. I never forgot how the Cobra jumped when you dumped the clutch and the fun I had driving it even for a short while. The Corvette was a great car to drive and I enjoyed taking care of it for many years. Do I regret selling it 2 years ago... and purchasing my Contemporary Cobra built in '89......Hard to say! The answer appears when I light up that big block Cobra.....The Corvette then becomes a mere memory.....
