Now, what is weird is ...I like MGA's.
They seem to lack that macho menacing stance that I have accepted as, a Cobra -Must -Have.
I find them a little too refined, and "feminine" if you will.
Just an expression of a personal preference.
Those who need to explore their feminine sides, should be my guest.
What do you put in those things to make them run well?

Interesting observations...
You know, to be honest, I think all Cobra's (even moreso 427's) have a rather feminine body. Curves and bulges and very attractive lines and proportions from any vantage point. I think that is partly why the are so popular. They are frankly pretty cars. The other part, of course, would be the big masculine engine, side pipes and deafening sound they produce with a real BB. A marriage of the best of both worlds. I guess we all see what we want to see. When I think masculine I think Hummer H2, Ford F350, Harley's and in cars Panoz, Coupe DeVille and Mercedes Benz. I put cute little Cobra's more in the Jaguar impression category. Heresy, I know, but I think they are more "pretty" than "menacing" (until you drag race one!)
