Casaleenie-my comment about the Viper was to the fact that it is closest to the Cobra in handling characteristics.Just ask Kelsey Grammer.
Of course "other" types get wadded up too.But a correctable error in driving a Vette or Mustang may not be correctable in a Cobra.Point is,our cars are not really comparable to anything on the road.
Case in point-a 73 year-old man was sold a Cobra by a dealer and three days later ,at a family get-together,was "giving" rides.
Yep-you guessed it.Off road,thru trees,upside down.
All survived.Both the car and driver were bent pretty good.
THis is not good for any of us.
