Why does every thread here devolve into a "Real" vs. "Replica" argument?

I've been duped now that you guys have explained I don't really have a Shelby Cobra.

Does anyone know a good lawyer? I've been had.




BTW Shelby aluminum roller sells for quite a bit more than Kirkhams and incorporate different suspension. Last I checked a Shelby alloy roller is about 1 to 1 1/2 years out and costs $160K for the just the roller. The 50th anniversary aluminum rollers sold I believer for $180K.

Kirkham rollers are $99K last I checked. Shelby Glass rollers are still $20K to $30k more.

Mr. Real1, Just because it costs more does not make it worth more. If you want to justify what you paid, good luck. Nobody here owns that responsibility to you. Channel your inner P.T. Barnum. Feel good about what you paid for it and be OK with it. Please do not feel the need to enforce that on everyone else. Go drive your very expensive car and just feel good. That's what its all about.
