Leaving people hanging with idea that they are in the presence of the Real McCoy tells me more about that person than it does about the car...

Here I'll help since the above needs refining to be completely fair.
1. You are being disingenuous if you "intentionally" pass of a Continuation series Cobra as an original series. If license plates are a measure my plate accurately states what the car is factually and legally. (Hey PaulF, you need to find the decision where the courts ruled/held as opposed to merely "wrote" (hint again) only SAI may legally sell, use, mark, tag or otherwise designate their cars as "Cobras", Shelbys or Shelby Cobras.)
My plate doesn't say "65COBRA", "ORIG427", "BAD65", "65SN8K" or some such other actual intentionally misleading combination attached to a car for instance that is a fake in every respect.
2. You are being intentionally misleading by passing of a non Shelby Cobra off as a "Cobra". It is in reality no such thing. It has as much in common with a Shelby Cobra as the model of one on my desk. The word Cobra should be prefaced with the word "pretend" "fake" or some other synonym with those cars. By a quick perusal of the never ending "Cool" license plate threads we have a lot of actual intentionally misleading conduct going on here.
