I am not smart enough to lie...just tell the truth and then and then you won't have to remember what you said ....

I bought the car because for a variety of reasons , I wanted one and I could afford it.

Impressing other people was not one of the reasons.

Best reason yet, owning a car to impress other people is very weak, own it because you want to be impressed.

Interesting thread revival - I wonder what car the OP ended up with.

I think the Cobra is just the best car in the world. I buddy of mine calls my car really fast art. Anyway, I find it interesting that Jay Leno a guy that has just about every car known to man, appears to love his cobra the best. Says somthin'...

The cool thing about Jay's car is it's an extremely well built replica re-creation too, not an original. He openly acknowledges this with pride in the craftsmanship about how the car was created how he wanted it, with a hand hammered aluminum body, SOHC Cammer 427. He has kept it that way ever since with seemingly no desire to replace with an original because he likes it the way it is. I know more than a few people who sold their originals and immediately built an ultra nice replica to replace it so they could drive it more often. Function first.
