Traded my Contemporary 427 for my CAV GT40. I agree with Pat.... the GT40 is a completely different driving experience. Twitchy, fast, handling is far superior and NEVER goes anywhere without a raving, cheering audience. Much more so than the Cobra. Infact, plan on extra time going anywhere to satisfy the curious masses! The best part of the GT is taking longer trips with it. No wind, comfort and certainly something to be said for A/C. Although I miss the raw experience of the Cobra, I wouldn't trade the GT for another. In my opinion, the GT is the next level both in performace, comfort and satisfaction. I will say that despite my years on convincing Mama that the GT would be more "versitle"... it just plain isnt. The Cobra was always ready, jump in and go, park anywhere. The GT needs thought and LOTS of parking space!
