I noticed lots of questions regarding the suspension...8.8 w/mustang front end. Even though this makes an easily servicable car...for most buyers in todays market its not good enough. They want either a 9" solid axel or a jag IRS w/discs all around. When I looked at Backdraft and the cost of a turn key with 345 hp, I can't build one w/labor. This is why I will be going to the next level with this car. I think the industry will finally bow its head to a better suspension that is not as American as rest of the car. I think the suspension will cause most new owners to give up the high hp for the delight of an evening cruise thru town or hit the winding road just outside town. I'm fortunate to be able to compare cars since this will be my 3rd. If I would recommend a situation that could put you in a Cobra with the least amount of headaches and have the most smiles it would be a purchase of a Backdraft. This car will produce a new breed of owner...one that wants to drive a cobra with reliability and feel confident that you will get your money back if you should ever have to sell.
Now for the kicker...I won't get my car until mid-October. I'm either extremely confident or extremely stupid! [/b]

Rogers,

New breed of owner, guaranteed resale, give up HP, BMW suspension. You're describing a Mazda Miata... Let Backdraft stray too far from what a Cobra is all about and you'll have a Cobra II or a Cobra lite... It'll have A/C, heater, windows, etc... Why not just buy the BMW Z car or a Boxster???? I'm curious as to who is looking for a docile Cobra???? The new question will be rather than, is it a replica?, to, is it a replica of a replica???
