I know automobiles fairly well so why do these cost so much? I mean are you paying 50 grand or more just for the Cobra diluted "DNA" as some members state. Not trying to start something there's enough on here already.
That's why I was asking what the market has been for used ones. Not interested in one. I mean I would rather have a hand made Aston than a continuation if it's in the 200,000. range. Give me a break!! You gentlemen speak on alloy bodied are they mixing gold or plat. in the mix?

I'll throw a little fuel on the fire. It's because they are paying 50 grand more for misplaced and diluted Shelby "DNA". The Cobra is not the marquis car that should be recognized, the GT40 is with wins at
The 24 Hours of Le Mans from '66-'69, the most prestigious and coveted race event of the year. That was Enzo Ferrari's unseating as the dominant racing force at the time, the FIA and 427 "Cobra" were stepping stones to get there. The Daytona Coupe also a capable contender but the GT40 put Enzo on his ass.
