Dear Evan,
As a valued SAAC contributor and avid enthusiast of these cars, thank you for your input. The paragraph you site in the Registry's "Evolution of the Registry", page 16, in fact accurately describes the thought process at the time by SAAC to protect investors of these rare and highly collectible cars from mass production versions by SAI and the ever growing 3rd party manufacturers. The primary purpose of the Registry is to maintain order and legitimacy of the original Cobras, produced in very limited numbers, so that collectors of these cars will continue to see their investment hold value and appreciate over time. As a CSX4000 series owner, you should be proud to own the later SAI version which is faithful to the original and with some 30 years of technological advances. Someday you may have the opportunity to own an original and the SAAC will help protect that investment, thank you for your continued support as a SAAC member.

Assuming that was SAAC's official response and clarification to what the editor in chief meant I could live with that explanation. No issue here.

Hey, any of you guys in Jersey want to meet up for a cup of coffee and talk Cobras and Cobra replicas? I'll buy the coffee

Cheers.
