First I bought a Cobra for all the typical reasons. Looks FABULOUS, fast, VERY cool, great handling, "different", etc.

What I DID NOT realize until AFTER I bought one was how "people friendly" the car is. For some reason, hard to put my finger on, "people" not only love the car they feel it's "approachable". It just seems to "draw" people like nothing I've EVER owned. And mostly NICE folks! Old folks, young folks, women and men, ALL walks of life.

I THINK I would take the Ford GT-40 because it to is VERY cool. BUT, will it be "intimidating" to the "people", like say a Lamborghini or a Ferrari or many other "exoctics" are?

I know when I see a Lambo or a Ferrari at a car show and I want to check it out I'm always a little nervous about what kind of guy/girl might own it? Will I get my hand slapped if I touch it? Will they even want to talk about the car?

I have NEVER sensed that from other people in regards to the Cobra. It just seems to INVITE people to come closer, visit, touch it, ALL kinds of people.

Will the GT be that "friendly"? If not I wouldn't keep it. Half the fun of owning a Cobra is sharing the joy with others!
