Blue cobra crashes into Arlington home
CBS 11's website was not updated yet but they showed on the news a blue Cobra with what appeared to be smoothies on it, crashed into a residential home tonight in Arlington. Everyone was okay which is important but did say the driver lost control after going to fast in the area. So if you are the one responsible 1st glad you are okay along with the homeowner but give us the other side of the story and let us know how bad the damage is and also if we can help in anyway.

Owch! Not the way I'd want to make the news. Something tells me the media made the driver out to be some kind of evil person. We need the other side of the story and a dammage report.

Yeah, what?
I would think it may have had smoothies on it before, but has wrinklies on it now.

..probably not the best time to do a 'rant' on the 'perfect replica' under the circumstances. 
I hope all parties are OK. |

When I had my FFR, I was stopped several times and asked "What year is that Vette?"

A.J. & Kevin,
Maybe y'all can print out this photo and throw darts at this tasteless Cobra. 
I hope you two enjoy yours as much as I do mine.
