Im a new member who has aspirations to either build a replica cobra or to buy one from existing owner.
MY NEEDS:
1) First Im 6' 3" ...... 215 pds ... I already understand that there are only certain models/manufacturers that will accomodate me "comfortably" .... comfort is the key word. I dont want to drive a car that I am crammed in the seat with my knees. I do understand its still a tight fit but the point is there are some manufacturers who I think make a longer frame for us taller people.
I will want to drive to car shows around the state and locally .... just flat enjoy the car !!!
So what brand do I buy ??
2) Im am not going to be racing this car. It will be driven regularly on weekdays and weekends to and from work weather permiting. I dont want a raced prepped car or one that has been raced.
3) gotta have the thump thump deep deep sound of a heavily cammed motor .... the few cobras i have seen at car shows ... omg ......
4) price ... dont want to spend $60 k .... $25000- $35000 +/- seems to be a good range for a decent car that doesnt have all the bells and whistles on it.
5) Do I build a car or buy one already built .... prob with the economy ... better to buy an existing unit than to build one. Have heard that one or several of the manufactures are in financial difficulities ( cant blame them can you ?) and I would feel safer buying a already built car from a reputable owner ... This said .... I use to build my own motors and trannies and races SHO's ... so I have the abilitly to build if I choose that route
THE END
Any and all help is greatly appreciated ....... I have always loved these cars and dam it if I wont own one sooner or later ... hopefully sooner
I am open for suggestions .... and I need my fix bad ..... sold my 2007 ShelbyGT500 @ 553 rwhp and 410 gears about 3 mths ago
