Thanks for the replies! Most of the reasons stated for why you own them is the same reasons I want one. My first motorcycle was a KH400 with chambers and stingers. Loud and stupid fast (handled like crap - good thing I couldn't swing the bucks for the KH500). I've owned a couple fast cars and driven several really fast cars, also have owned a couple of Harleys, several boats and an airplane along the way but 19 years of marriage, three kids, and more soccer and baseball games than I care to count tends to slow things down a bit. Time for the 'fool to get back to doing what he enjoys. I'm fortunate enough to live in South Florida so I get to see all kinds of cool rides but the one thing that always gets my attention is a Cobra. I guess in some ways it's like looking at your favorite pinup; if given the opportunity, would you really want to ruin the dream with the reality? I'm in no huge hurry to purchase one. Like everything I've bought over the years, I'll obsess over the details for months before setting my sights on my target. Right now, I'm torn between the refined performance and creature comforts of the Gran Sport convertible coming out, or even a GT500, and the brute force of the Cobra. I know my wife; in time she would love the Cobra but the 'Vette or GT500 would be an easier sell. But isn't that why you own a Cobra? Anybody can (and just about everybody in South Florida does) own a 'Vette.
