No, no... 2550 with a half tank of gas. But, I'll go with the 99% odds and say the OP never gets a Cobra anyway. Any Cobra. |

On the contrary, I usually set my sights on a goal and acheive it. I decided that I've waited long enough and it's time to find the one I want or at least the one I can make what I want. I like this forum because you get what you ask for. I asked for opinions and I got some. Thanks guys... keep em coming. |

Just be smart enough to heed opinions that are backed up with fact and experience. There are many keyboard jockeys that only spout what they read somewhere else.

Go with the "rule of fives." You should have owned your Cobra for at least five years, put at least 5,000 miles on it, and have at least 5 posts per day since you joined Club Cobra.  |

That's why I suggest riding in and driving as many different cars with as many different engines as possible, then decide what's right for you.....

All kidding aside, USE the Search,and u will find info on about any topic.
Lay out a budget (you will exceed what u planned for  ). then Buy and build what makes u happy.
You will find a wealth of knowledge on this site, as well as some low budget humor.
Best of luck!

Nothing makes me happier than when someone gets the car of their dreams. But you know as well as I that for every "I'm going to get a Cobra" post, and then do, there are a hundred or more that die by the side of the road.... |
