Perhaps my point as stated early on, this will turn into a long thread. Of course with sideliners posting barbs and innuendo it filled up to post #42 rather quickly.

The question has been answered but my invitation for further information has yet to be responded to.

And I know you kiss a lot of frogs before you find your prince in this business. Trust me the inquiry to sale rate is probably 150/200 to 1.

I have no problem talking with people who probably will never purchase this type of car. I meet lots of people at shows who "just want to sit in one once", no problem. I can't tell you the number of kids we have let crawl into a GT40 so dad can get a picture of the kid behind the wheel. Hey, I was 10 years old once (a LONG time ago!) and heck, we LIKE to talk cars! So don't tell me I wasn't responding because I didn't think anyone here was a "potential buyer". There is no tatoo on the foreheads of "real buyers" that I.D.s then so we pretty well treat all people as customers.

There is a reason I did not respond right off to the pricing question but that is no reason to disparage our customer treatment and is quite insulting not just to me but to all of the vendors and dealers who are active on Club Cobra. I certainly have never posted negative things about a competitor, in fact have suggested some competitive products to people for whom it was a good choice and I am friendly with some "competitors" who you might expect I would not be.
