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

The car was inspected by an ADOT vehicle compliance inspector and he knew exactly what it was... a CSX 4000 Shelby continuation Cobra produced in the mid 2000's by Shelby Autos in Las Vegas. Very familiar with the Shelby brand and Shelby Cobras. He produced the paperwork that was used by the MVD office personnel that did the final paperwork. Never once claimed 4815 was produced other than in 2006. NEVER! No fraud here... just the way things are done in AZ.

All I did was show a copy of my AZ title as ask by a previous poster. I thought I would possibly get ripped by others on this forum and I have... Sometimes I really wonder about you guys here! Who are you to question and criticize how the state of Arizona does things compared to other states? I think you guys need to get real!

I agree. I've had owners from other states tell me that's fraud and my response is to have them call the AZ governor's office and tell them about it.
It really doesn't mean much outside the state as another state is still going to register a replica bought here as their rules apply. It also has to do with emissions standards for AZ. One thing that is bad about that is an original with a 67 model year has to pass emissions to be registered here. Not easy for a big block.
