THIS for 43 grand and drive it for a year. See if owning a Cobra is right for you ( it isn't right for everyone ).....
MORE PICS HERE Spend some time getting to know it and finding out what you like/don't like. Then you can customize it with the other 40grand into exactly what YOU envision. The best part is, if you find that a Cobra isn't for you, then selling a car for 43K is quite a bit easier than a highly customized one for 80k. Don't get me wrong, that is one drop dead beautiful ride and to replicate it would run upwards of 100k.
I bought mine used for 38K and spent another 18k making it into a very personal ride that suits my tastes and personality. This included a new trans, re-geared diff, new fuel system, wheels/tires, and a bunch of cosmetics. Here is the result:
If you feel you want more power, then talk to Keith Craft about building you a monster small block without the FI stuff on it. Personally, I think that naturally aspirated Cobras are more trouble free but everyone has a different opinion. I have a 605HP KC motor and can't really see a need for much more for how I drive the car.
Just my opinion and nothing more. No warranties implied or offered. Your mileage will vary with use. Follow all label instructions. Do not operate while driving.
P.S. I have absolutely no affiliation with the seller of that car on EBAY nor do I know the history/condition. I was just using it as an example.
