Jeez dude, interesting way to introduce yourself... Most of the older Cobra owners that I know are deadset champions and some of the nicest guys you could hope to meet. There are just as many younger owners, none of whom have given a second thought to your perceived stereotype and who have built some incredibly fast road/race cars. Others just love the shape and some want to create a tribute to one of the most iconic cars of all time.
Just quietly, people from each of those groups could be forgiven for thinking that you're a goose who should go and buy something that you don't need to justify to yourself so strongly...

Oh yeah, welcome to ClubCobra.
