Well I stopped reading this nonsense some time ago and a few of you must have nothing better to do with your time.....this thread is now known "As the Cobra Turns" a new online soap opera.


Edit: Ooops sorry do I have permission to use the word Cobra here?

Real 1,

The weather forecast for N.J. is looking great for the rest of the week so you need to get away from the keyboard and clear the dust off your Cobra and go for a nice long ride to clear your head!
Fire it up and have some fun!

As has been said before the only question being asked by the gen pop is "is it an original" no matter how they phrase it. My answer is always "No" it's a Superformance Replica.

What anyone else says about theirs is up to them.

I'm just glad I have a Cobra! I'm going to go drive mine right now!

That's fine Buddyg. I agree you have a Superformance replica but honestly I personally have no problem with what you call your car or believe your car is. Its fine with me. Go enjoy it.

There has been some good tidbits and history in this thread sprinkled into the nonsense, but mostly what I've learned is how much I suck at hiding the fact that my car is just a replica

Thanks I try harder! But I have been battling my voluntary tourettes. One day at a time you know?

Kevins2, be honest, you attach the letters COB in front of the ERA. LOL

Hey Ralphy,

Yes, I do refer to my replica as a Cobra, but in the generic sense as has been discussed in parts of this thread and, obviously, I have no problem answering the question honestly. My point was to add one more vote for the folks that aren't too concerned with all this original or fake stuff. To me, the fact that there are so many replicas is a tribute to the original cars.

Just got back from taking my daughter and then my wife for a drive! Then some solo time, man is that a lot more fun than all of us and our dribble.

It's Cobra weather baby!

Real1 what a joke, you just said, "Seriously, I have no problem with anyone personally. I only have problems with personal attacks. People are entitled to their personal views if that's what it is."

Let's go back to your very first post here, first sentence even Evan, "After you are finished reading the self seving analysis offered here you will find the correct answers in the current SAAC Registry of Cobras & GT40s. Your car is correctly defined as a replica/kit car by SAAC. It is not Cobra but a replica of one. It's all in the SAAC Registry. No better source for authoritative information.

Bam, you slung the mud! Get outta hear your a Real Work!



Your A Troll!


Oh! Let's go to your second post shall we?

"Btw I resented your remark in post 14. Whether it was self serving or not it's factually incorrect and clearly a shot at what you don't own."

You mistook my post as literal and I rebutted and told you it was a joke. But you still continued over and over! Get help! Now your playing the victim card, man up Evan.

I wonder when "not-real 1" will finally realize that everyone here is only taking turns "poking the bear".

When the bear stops reacting, the fun stops.

I would say you have the wrong bear identified, Ralphy seems to be the one with his panties all up in a bunch

Do you like hectorturer's Coca-Cola analogy? Will you call yours a continuation branded SPF?

You better go back and read the first two pages here. Evan/Real1 directed his first two and derogatory two posts at me. Call it what you will! He drew first blood. Still no apology! He has some imaginary idea I think, I was attacking him or his car. When he hadn't posted here yet and I never heard of him anywhere here on CC? Real nice how do you do I say. Up yours too!

So let me add another term, Hijacker and Troll.

That's funny considering his post count is more than double yours. Evan has been around a long time and has made a lot of positive contributions. You may not agree with his opinions but he has the right to participate.

You got that right. While Evan has been quite forceful in his arguments I think he's shown a lot of restraint in not making personal attacks. I can't say that for several others.
