More of my sound advice, if you have not done so, I highly recommend that you get yourself in the passenger seat of a Cobra for a 20 mile ride before you decide to buy. Again, I say this not as an attack, but more of my guidance, as a Cobra is unlike anything else you have ever driven/owned. I know of a few NASCAR drivers who have been taken out, then chose to not purchase one as it was not as they expected. A few other pro SCCA racers who have gone out on "parade laps" thinking they understood the handling of a Cobra, who after being taken around at 1/2 the speed they are used to, have also decide to not purchase one, as it was not as they expected it to be. It's not a blow to their ego, just a reality check before they spent their hard earned money.

Now, with that said, quite a few have decided to ultimately purchase one, out of those, less than 25% actually drive the cars on the track, the rest savor the pride of ownership and take them out locally, never turning more than 4,000rpms as they travel from their homes to shows and ice-cream shops in their local area. Regardless of how they are driven, as soon as you sit in the car and turn the key, it will try it's best to kill you. Most get what I'm saying, sadly a few who believe they knew better are no longer with us..

I'll leave this at that and wish you the best of luck with whatever you decide to do with your hard earned money.
