Accident stats with regards to Cobra's vs Vettes or what ever other car you choose are totally pointless as no other car is so "ill-mannered" in the handling department.
Another thing that would skew the numbers is percentages.Our Cobras are still the vast minority vs the"rest of the world".There are too many idiots that just can't comprehend them.
The survey i'd like to see is the one where we see how many Cobra owners have previous high powered car/racing experience BEFORE buying a Cobra.
This would be versus the owners who bought one because they"thought they(the car)were cool"or have always wanted one and now have the means($$)and have been driving VW Beetles their whole life.
And to put heavier frame structures,air bags
and steel bodies on these cars would push the weight past new Mustangs.It is bad enough to have a 2500 pound car that is squirrelly,but to ask for one that is 3-4000 pounds is insane.
The ONLY effective safety device for a Cobra is a tight connection between the seat & the steering wheel.
