I like FFR cars, and all the folks I know who have them are great, but the site can get a little RA RA for me. What I have noticed over the years is that a large contingent at the FFR site have become the folks that they complained about years ago,sort of reverse snobism. the car has improved dramatically over the years though, that is a fact.

I can attest the reverse snobbery in the distant past (not now), when I sold my first FFR and bought a beautiful Contemporary it was like night and day. It was like a light switch, the change in attitude by the FFR owners I hung out with was amazing, it was like I ran over their dog or something. Thankfully those snob style owners of the past are long gone (sold their cars, bought nice 4 dr sedate sedans and faded into the woodwork), these days, all of us could care less what brand of cobra replica we own, at least the guys I hang with at the monthly breakfast and local shows. Sure there will always be one or two in the crowd who feel "their car" is better than everyone else's (I do know one local Lone Star owner like that who looks down at every other manufacturer, including a certain black AC MK IV) because it is not what they chose for themselves, but they are not the norm. As for myself, I'm slowly working my way up to a Kirkham, one step up anddown the replica evolutionary trail at a time
