Interesting that Superformance has this on the front page of their site:

"There's an exception when it comes to Jimmy Price and Lance Stander. Superformance International makes replica Cobras in South Africa and calls the two-seat roadster they build the MKIII. It's not a true Shelby, but I've endorsed and licensed the car for being as close to correct and well-built as possible."

- Carroll Shelby (Octane, Oct. 2006)


And then on the individual Cobra MK III page

The Superformance MKIII is the only Cobra replica built under license from Carroll Shelby Licensing Inc.

What makes the MKIII so much better than its competitors? It looks like an exact replica should. It is sure-footed, reliable and is as exciting as the great sport roadsters of the sixties. Each rolling chassis comes completely assembled and painted, less engine and transmission.

So obviously Superformance is NOT marketing their cars as ORIGINAL Cobra's.

Carry on with your bickering.
