I've driven some lower quality replicas that were assembled very well by a knowledgable builder that actually drove nice and solid, and I had originally expected them to be junk. On the flip side, driven some better quality replicas that were not assembled very well or not maintained well that totally felt and drove like junk.

The final assembly, attention to detail, and maintenance after use has something to do with it too especially when comparing used Cobra replicas out there.
