I like the newer ones better. I dont know if I would spend $200000 on one of those althought the resale value would go up in a couple of years when Shelby dies.

Even cooler. What if I told you you can have a original looking Ford 427 A/C Cobra that is built to race car specs fast as hell and costs less that 20G???? One catch...you gotta build it yourself. Dont call this a kit car...its a race car in a box.

Poor quality???? They have won several trade awards for superior build quality both in chassis and body design and manufacturing!!! There ios no better Cobra kit. Its not made to be a show car like SuperPerformance Cobras or anything...Factory 5s are a balls to the wall race car that happens to look like a Cobra.
I saw once take apart a turbo NSX last year at the MArtin Sports car club races in Orlando. It was built and driven by a judge from Daytona (I think) named John Phillips. That car was awesome!!! If I can find (yeah right) an extra 11 G Ill buy a kit another 4G buys a 5.0 stang for donor parts. Another 2G for Cobra R wheels and tires and extra goodies...and for 17 thousand you have a low buck super car...not a cheesey garage queen Cobra kit like the others.
