Marc-You should not apologize-you're looking for help and this sentence in your first post would have made that clear.
No one is angry at you-most are just looking for the information you provide to help you best. Your budget, intended usage, and mechanical capabilities will help us help you. We all own one and many have owned many-so there's lots of experience to draw from.
I hate to admit it (because we are the human version of
oil and water) but Pat's advice is very sound for starters.
Study, join, see and feel these in person over a period of time. Whether you spend $30K or $130K (and you can) the process should not be a casual one-it requires a diligent search for understanding even before a diligent search for the actual car. Otherwise, you'll piss away dough and like some flakes with too much money, move onto the next thrill.
Discovering that a replica Cobra is
NOT for you is far more beneficial than jumping in to find you don't dig them.
Glad to have you and ask away. But search first here then ask questions as your preferences take shape. You'll quickly learn who you love and hate or take advice from. Hint: Hate Patrick immediately- you'll be glad you did.
We can all help you better that way.
