While there are certainy more "Cobras" today than 5 years ago I think it speaks to the desirabity of the "Cobra".

While you can argue that they aren't as rare as they used to be as far as seeing one on the road there is no other rare car copied as much as the Cobra. Why? It has that rare combination of beautiful lines and tremendously aggressive looks which can be backed up by the cars prodigious performance.

The car is still rare enough and stirs enough passion that there is rarely a time I can think of when I didn't get a "thumbs up" from people.

Whether replicas become more common place or not doesn't matter to me. Maybe it does to others. I purchased a Shelby Cobra because I wanted the same legendary car that he made in the 60's but brand new. I love the perfomance, the beautiful lines, the look of the car, the sound and the way it makes me feel just looking at it and especially driving it. I couldn't care less about the number of replicas out there today, which is still a very small percentage of the total number of the cars on the road.

I love the car. I didn't buy a Cobra because they were rare. I could have bought a Ferrari if that was my concern. I couldn't care less how many others are out there.
I love my Shelby Cobra. Period.
