I have owned my Cobra for 9 years and bought it used. It was built in 1980 and I have spent lots of money making it MY car. The car was owned by six people prior to me. The shortest time owned was less than one year while two owners kept the car for at least 6 years.

The Cobra has been my dream car for years but an original was always out of my price range. It is not the vehicle for everyone, much like a motorcycle as far as creature comforts go. I'm finding that as I get older (67) it is harder to get in and out of and be comfortable while driving. I still love the visceral feel and excitement of driving the car but I don't find myself behind the wheel near as much as in the past. If I were to sell the car it would be because I am not using the car like I did in the past and I feel these cars are made to be driven and enjoyed. My son continually reminds me that I don't really need the money and he will be happy to inherit the Cobra when I'm to feeble to drive the car.

I think that there are far to many reasons for "Why do Cobra owners sell so fast?" to narrow it down to a couple of answers. The most common one is usually going to be " I need the money for _________."
