If you look at the side views of that car you can see, particularly in the rear, that the bodywork is raised up so high above the chassis that it makes the roll bar look small. I think its a shame that they made such poor decisions modifying their bodies that way on an otherwise excellent car. And its even more of a shame that many believe that's the way a Cobra ought to look since Contemporary is constantly touted as "the most accurate Cobra replica". It simply is not so.
