[marcocsx3121]

Simple answer: when bought CSX3121 in 1969, even as a lowly project engineer, I paid the equivalent of four months gross salary. Today, as a retiree depending on the kindness of others (mainly my wife), the Shelby "continuation cars" cost a couple of years worth of my retirement income. Besides, as an arrogant former owner of a "real" Cobra, I view the CSX4000 cars as just another replica. I'm looking to recapture the excitement of Cobra driving, and not necessarily the snob appeal of owning a particular brand.
