If a guy wants to tell me that he thinks Car A is better than Car B because he likes the color better, or he prefers a big block engine, or he doesn't like 17" wheels, or the resale on Car A is better, or any of a thousand other specific reasons, I will be happy to listen and consider his opinion. But if he knows so little about cars that his only reason for thinking Car A is better than Car B is because of their brands, then I don't think his opinion is worth hearing. If you chose a big brand Cobra replica because you didn't feel competent to evaluate the components and quality of construction of individual cars, then why should your opinion about which car is better carry any weight? .... Now I'm not saying or implying that everyone who bought a big name Cobra replica did so because they were uninformed. I am confident that is not the case. I'm just saying that claiming Brand A is universally better than Brand B is no way to make your case to me whether those brands are Superformance, Kirkham, FFR, BDR, ERA, Ford, Chevy, Buick, Dodge or Kia.

Tommy, you own a kit car.
Tommy, you own a middle of the road kit car.
Tommy, you own a middle of the road kit car that really isn't that special.
Tommy, you own a middle of the road kit car that really isn't that special and the motor is wrong.
Tommy, you own a middle of the road kit car that really isn't that special and the motor is wrong so others tell you theirs is better.
Tommy, don't let others tell you theirs is better, sell your middle of the road kit car that really isn't that special with the wrong motor.
