Seriously, I'm not trying to savor any moment, if there is one to be savored.

I'm trying to understand the logic. When something is cloned, 30, 40, 50 years later, and it's not really an exact clone either (e.g., the Kirkham alloy bodies are thicker than the original 998, original 1960's magnesium Halibrands, exhaust, headers, many have wrong engines and transmissions, suspension, brakes, differentials, paint, assembly, etc.), how can it be genuine?

What do you think the % of votes would be amongst the owners of the original 998, if they took a vote regarding the modern Shelby replicas being genuine? What about a vote amongst us non-Shelby replica owners, how would that turn out?
