I think the Cobra has more mentally fatiguing than some of the more modern Street cars. There is a little more concentration required to hang on to the car for an extended period of time. I could drive my wifes Cavalier at the limit all day one handed and not break a sweat. Drive a Cobra at the limit all day and...well, those limits are night and day different!

They do have a very high limit and mine is fairly predictable. But things can happen very quickly when you get to the limit and beyond.

Do they handle poorly? Only in the way a race car handles poorly for the average or inexperienced driver. Below the very high limit they are like a very laid back teddy bear to me.

This is just my experience though, others will vary.
