Not Ranked
I'd like to weigh in on this. First of all, which car is "better" is as subjective a choice as there will ever be. All I can do is relate my experiences and the second-hand accounts I've heard from other CSX owners. The entire ordering, building, and after-the-sale experiences I have had in the process of acquiring CSX4252 have been exceptional since Day One. The late Bob Marsh at Shelby was attentive, sincere, and truly invested in working with me on my order. Gary Davis took the time to answer my endless questions as the build began and was always available by phone. The end result of how the build quality and overall appearance of a CSX measures up can be traced back to the dealer and Billy Andrews at HRE is a master craftsman whose work speaks for itself, not only on CSX cars but the outstanding original Cobras he has restored.
I would eagerly invite anyone to compare the quality and craftsmanship of my car to any other, regardless of manufacturer. The number of awards it has won is a testimony to the quality of the CSX Cobra and the skills of the guys at HRE. Jay Bentley has seen my car several times, actually parked his original Cobra beside mine at a show in Newport, RI in September and was quite impressed with it, which I truly appreciate. And the pride that comes with people just freezing in their steps when they see a Shelby Cobra with a CSX serial number--original or continuation--is always great fun. I am very happy that I chose the CSX Cobra and haven't regretted it for a moment.
