I don't think anyone with any sense would ever buy one of these cars. You'd probably be doing yourself a favor to just wait until next spring and see if this bout of "Cobra fever" that you're going through doesn't dissipate.

No, I meant any Cobra, be it SPF, FFR, ERA, CSX, or anything in between. The guys that really love these cars have been doing so for decades. It's really a sickness. We've all seen cases of guys that think they want a Cobra, and then when they get one, they wish they hadn't. That's why I recommend that you give it more time.
