Pushing 42. Had mine for 3 years & loved them since I can remember.
Also thought it would be a little safer than getting a bike.  Hopefully!

 Maurice,
If I were as wise as my age should dictate I would be right up there among the best. But unfortunately, I don't think in my case wisdom progressed with my age. I seem to be stuck somewhere in the teens wisdom wise. I agree that young and stupid was fun. I still have the stupid part, now if I could just get the young part again.

I first answered this question in 2006 when I was a young 60 year old but now I am much more "mature" and pushing 64 I just wish that I hadn't waited so long to get my Cobra. On the other hand if I had been able to buy the one that I saw in 1966 I probably would have killed myself in short order.

I am old as dirt but I remember going with my Dad to the Ford Dealership in Riverside, CA to see my first Cobra in 1965. I knew I would have one some day and I do. Bestest and funnest car ever.

40 and had my Cobra for 4 Years. I never thought I would own one but thanks to my father-inlaw I got it at a good price. I have had many muscle cars and jacked up 4X4's but none of them have been this much fun.

I am still trying to get my first one. Been in that mode since 1972.
I just turned 56.
If life does not toss me any more surprises, I just might pull it off in the next few years.

I am 39 and holding, every thing I can, just to prove I still can...
OK that came from an old country song, I am 61 and loving every minute in my Cobra.
If the above quote is off, then I blame it on my age.

I'm 47 A.C. (after coffee) First thing in the morning makes me wonder if they're dog years.
Probably like a lot of you, can't figure out how I made it this far.
Like one of the old-timers once told me: " I don't worry about stuff that hurts when I get up anymore, but the day I get up and nothing hurts, then I'll worry. |
