The common denominator here is that you shouldn't think of a Cobra replica as just a car. It should be viewed as a hobby, at the very least, and probably more like a lifestyle if you drive it a lot. If you're not the type that would actually enjoy some of the aspects of the car that have been described here as a PITA, then you probably shouldn't get one.

As for mileage, I finished my car this past January and have almost 5,000 miles, so guess you can add me to the camp that drives them.

Lastly, listing "kicking some ass on the streets" as one of the primary reasons for wanting one is worrisome. Good chance it won't end well...
