Default Re: reasons are many, and sometimes not fun

Dave,
interesting question. I've thought about it myself several times. For me, I had a Cobra that I loved, but could not justify keeping when I had lost my job and a guy came up and wanted to buy it from me during the same month. My car was not even for sale at the time, a guy saw it at an event and asked about it. So for a few weeks I battled in my head about selling it or not after getting the car the way I wanted it. I thought I was suppose to sell it, feeling guilty running down my savings account while being out of work. As soon as I sold it I thought, "oh crap", what did I just do. So, the moral of the story for me is, if you really like the car, don't sell it if you can figure out how to keep it. I told the new owner several time that I missed owning and driving the car. Once he had it for a while, he stated he ended up having some problems with it and seemed almost disappointed in owning it. So, each person has their own reasons and level of excitement, but what I can tell you is this... I am working to get another one, and it is one of the funnest cars I've ever had. I miss having the car in the garage and being able to meet my friends out on drives. For now, I'm in the passenger seat, but I'll get another one. One of my other friends sold his Cobra to try a Viper, now he is back looking at Cobras again - it's only a matter of time for him too. The term, "Bitten by the Snake" is appropriate for those who always wanted a Cobra and could visualize owning one. I'll be getting another one on the road...

See Ya.
Duane
