You gotta explain this. . Whats the problem with ackknowledging the fact that the guy who always wanted an Indian Chief and can't afford the original vintage bike or can't find one and now has the money to pony up the $26K for the new Chief has a new genuine Indian Chief made and sold by Indian. I have no problem with it. He isn't trying to pass it off as an original.

I said I'd call todays Indian Chief an Indian Chief, but I would not call it a "genuine Indian Chief" as it implies that it's the same Indian Chief that they stopped production on in 1953. It's a completely different bike, but harkens to the days of old. I'd love to have one.

The new GT 40 is a Genuine Ford GT. The successor to the original GT 40. Is it original. No. Is it a genuine Ford GT. How can it not be????


You don't seem to get your own implication of "genuine Cobra" you stated it as a continuation of the existing CSX series. That's what I have a problem with.

Are you suggesting I don't love Cobras and Cobra replicas? Why else would I hang out here on this club and deal with what I put up with?

I don't insult nor do I intend to insult FFRs. In fact as stated before I like them. Their new MKI chasis is really nice. My problem is that everyone thinks I'm elitest and CSX owners are elitest because we defend what our cars are. Genuine Cobras. Not original but continuation Cobras. No one is trying to pass the Continuation Cobras off as originals because they ain't.

FFR guys are sensative about the perception that there cars are at the bottom of the pecking order. You dispute that and don't like that perception. In fact if I came up to a FFR owner and said your car was a piece of $hit because its a FFR they probably wouldn't like it. In fact I would and never have said that about FFRs. Fact is I don't think that at all.
Is that why you made the remark Boy. The FFR groupies can only hope!

Finally, a chance to own a Shelby or something close!

Boy the FFR groupes are going nuts over the prospect and its only a rumor. Kinda exposes what the FFR boys would rather have.

Hysterical. Just hysterical.

Well, what makes you think knocking a CSX as a "fake snake" is not just as insulting to a CSX owner and an intentional effort to degrade what someone else has? Ever look at from that angle? CSX owners have been called names and ridiculed as suckers, pigeons etc.. Why becasue were told we overpaid for fakey doos. I don't get upset with these knocks. I'll just keep pointing to the facts. That doesn't make me an elitest. That causes me to be accused of being an elitest by those that wish to trash the truth and denigrate the facts for their own motives. I'll just keep being an elitest everytime someone smears my CSX.


Actually I implied it as a "Real Fake Snake" and that I have a "Fake Fake Snake"

Mutual respect is the answer.
I would have never made the insult, and yes it was intentially an insult if I was not insulted to begin with. It is the elitest attitude you put forward in your comments that pissed me off to the point of posting the reply that I did. If you don't recall here's the response again Real Fake 1,

Thanks for the laugh. I think it's too funny how you as someone that has purchased a Real Fake Snake, as oppose to someone like me who's built/building a Fake Fake Snake, is so superficial as too need to suggest that we the "FFR groupes" are going nuts over the prospect of FFR buying SAI.

Most of us think it's an utterly obsurd suggestion as there's absolutely no finacial basis for something like this to even occur.

Have some fun driving your Real Fake Snake that you had produced.

I know I'll have fun driving my Fake Fake Snake that I built.

Out of the 3 years posting on Cobra Related forums (mainly FFCobra.com and Cobraforum.com) you're only the second person I've insulted. The first of course being MEAT
