For some reason I hadn't found a thread to respond to that would bring me to an even 100. I guess this is the time.
The car is definitely awesome and I strongly feel that it captures the cobra spirit. No top, no sideglass, no radio, no heater, 427 cubics inches, and a sound that I would kill for.
Will it become the legend reincarnated? time can only tell. First they'll have to produce it. Remember that the first cobra didn't exactly set any sales records. It was built to race. CS had to sell some to meet FIA requirements. It wasn't until most of us got past our lean years before we made the replica business successful.

As far as changes, I would round the front opening at the bottom corners and I would lengthen the area behind the rear wheel well a little. Other than that feel that the car is a great 2004 "interpretation" of what a Shelby Cobra might look like if it were first produced in these current times.

Should it even be "improved"? Hard to say. Should have the Babe's record been broken? Were the Babe's records actually broken? Different times mean different different conditions.

The bottom line is that there are going to be, no there already are differing opinions (see other related threads). and that 's probably the single most important value of this forum. We can air out our thoughts and feelings and in the end RESPECT remains no matter what side of the fence you are on.
