Replica or no replica, why does everything have to degenerate to that?

The question is whether this guy should buy any of the (Cobra, Coupe, GT40). Help him decide IF now WHICH first.

When someone (Swift) talks about originality of the SPF GT40 being superior to the rest of the GT40's. It's an "homage." While the SPF GT40 is "more original" than the others, Swift actually thought I REALLY cared about originality, because I owned a Kirkham. And he or she brought up the comparison of the FFR to the Kirkham (quality and originality).

That's why, can you understand the "degeneration" now?

Well, after composing 5 separate replies, all quite humorous, my response is "why bother, everything that can be said has been said". And it turns out, I've already said it so many times that it's not worth trying again.

Have a swell day.

Sure hope the original poster can get some meaningful feedback. My recommendation is still to buy a Cobra as your first car.
