[CSX 4027]

If I Just bought a New Dodge Viper, the majority of the sports car nuts out there would pretty much know about how much the car costs. Same as when I board a plane and walk through 1st class. I know what they paid for the seat. With the Cobra, a lot of people have no idea. They here all kinds of numbers on Original cars and never know what to believe. Then the kits can be all over the place. I feel most of the people that want to know kinda size up the owner and wonder why they can't afford one as they are usually jealous.
From an owners standpoint, I feel most kit car owners are into the car for way more than they care to admit. I feel the owns who resent the question are embarrased to tell because they know they are in too deep. When the average 4000 guy was in for around 70K in the beginning of the series, I was in for 85K. I never hesitated to tell anyone. I didn't care what they thought. And, that was before I dropped another $10k in. I then bumped the statement to $95K. I someone had the balls to ask, I had the balls to tell although I didn't walk around with a banner. Then when I sold it for a much bigger number, I didn't have any problem telling that either. Know why? Because people in general would have rather see people lose money so they can have something to snicker at. I just don't live my life that way.
