You can argue till the cows come home whether these are original Cobras. They aren't. Noone said they were, and noone is going to be fooled into thinking they are. They are simply using a well known set of components created over 20 years ago. The VINs were assigned in the 90's when the chassis were built, the controversial issues of the time have been addressed, and the cars are going to be built.

Cars are sold on the same MSOs as the previous when the controversy shut them down. They won't work in CA. Your mileage in other places may be higher. Think Montana. I'll put very high odds that these become street legal in some jurisdictions. Some places will give you the same hassle as CA. Don't ever try to move the car to CA. This is my conclusion but it was never stated explicitly that other places may not be so evil as CA.

I'll reserve judgement until I see one, but knowing the parties making them they will rival the CSX1000 cars in quality.

Build sheets are being done for each vehicle. The answers to these and many other questions are available from Denbeste.
