CSX 6000 at Barrett-Jackson

[csx4910]

I know I havent been around as long as a lot of you, but why does have to continue to be a pissing contest to see whose is better and bigger? Some of you suffer from CSX envy and some people like Evan cant seem to get over himself and that he has a alum csx and most people dont.

Half of this crowd wishes they could afford a CSX and seem to need to make excuses why they prefer theirs while bashing the continuation cars and Evan doesnt do any favors for the rest of us who own csx's but can appreciate ALL cobras. Evan you are a broken record and need a new recording. The rest of you need to get a life adn not bash those of us who bought a CSX just because we have always wanted an origianl but this is the closet we can get to it as we will never be able to afford the original

Ron, I'm just having some fun with Evan. I'm not "pissing on" CSX's. Who knows, I may buy one in the future, and I almost bought one before I bought my Kirkham.

Hey, were both in the SAAC Registry anyway.

I never said mine was anything different than a replica. Not all of us that own a CSX suscribe to Evan's philosophy of real/fake. I happen to agree with you. I didnt buy my car because it was "real" or not, I bought it because it was the closest (to me) to the original. I dont care what it is worth in 5 years any more than I would a FFR, BDR or SPF as I dont plan on ever selling it. I personally preferred driving my csx to teh Superformance I owned, although the SPF has some nicer fit and finish is differnt areas.

Cars by nature are never to be viewed as assets anyway, but expenses. I bought mine to enjoy dirivng my dream car and wanted to put as much horsepower in it as possible. Everyone has different tastes and reasons why they buy what they do and I dont see the point in always wanting to argue why your choice is better than anyone elses. it was your choice, not mine and my choice is personal to me so it really isnt anyone's business about my car. I dont rag on anyone else's car and dont appreciate people raggin on mine just because Carroll Shelby has turned into an a@#$% in his old age. i dont like it any better than you do but that didnt influence my decision to want to buy my car. I didnt even know about any of what has been going on until I came on this site.

I just dont see why some of you always want to turn this site into a pissing contest to see whose is bigger

Rodknock,
you have a beautiful car. I never knew about the Kirkhams until after I bought my csx otherwise I may of bought one of thiers. I only knew about FFR , SPF and Shelby when I got my car. I really wanted an alum CSX but it was a 6 month wait and I had already waited 35 years to get one. I kick myself now because it was only a $10K upgrade then and now a $50K-$60K upgrade now I think. I could of have the Alum roller for $60K + options but of well.
