Tuto feels his car is not a "real" Cobra but he paid all that money for a "plaque" and mystic and distinction???? . Certainly twisted reasoning to me. Ok, that's fine with me, he can feel and see his car that way. His belief and position is at odds with the Registry, the facts and law. He is applying the term "replica" in it's commonly misused manner to his Shelby but hey... good for him if it makes him happy. Thankfully Rodknock found a continuation owner that see his car as a "fake" Shelby Cobra made by Shelby with all the mystic and distinction that separates it from the rest. But Hallelujah anyway!

Twisted logic of any car owner doesn't change things one bit.

The current production Cobras are "true" replicas as defined by Websters. Never said they weren't. Agreed. However, no other can be a true "replica" of a Shelby Cobra. However, all the others can be "replicas" as that term is used and commonly understood, i.e. fake Cobra.

I know a lot of you just got lost again.

Registry explains it all. But I guess the Registry is kaput anyway so I'm just gonna throw mine out.
The 8+ year old SAAC website statement explains it all...OOPS, that went "X-Files" (i.e. disappeared without a trace).

If I were a betting person, I'd bet that the next Registry will change that whole CSX replica minutia.

Evan, just because someone has a different viewpoint from you doesn't mean you have to insult them by saying their logic is twisted. You know, it could be yours and not their logic.
