Default Compared to a 1965 'vette

Which is a very cool car IMO... the attention the cobra gets is in a different league.. I received at least 2,000 "thumbs up", some of them "double thumbs up" in the first 3,000 miles. It's not just a car, it's an adventure. And the handling with my car, (which admittedly is an advanced cobra design with the latest add on gear) is exceptional. The braking is excellent (power, crossdrilled and vented discs) and the accelleration is only matched by my Yamaha V-Max 1200 V-4 motorcycle... in fact the cobra is likely faster, next summer this will be determined, after a few clutch tech issues are dealt with. I also have the computerized fuel injection system yet to install..

AND: I have a 600 watt stereo, 16 CDs in the trunk, in dash radio/cassette, with 4 speakers and an 8 inch subwoofer under the passenger's seat. For this I do not apologize, I am a music lover....
