We have a relatively large number of roadsters in the Atlanta area, and only 3 running coupes that I know of. Two are Superformance coupes from the local dealer, and mine.

The coupe stands out in a group of Cobras: a stand out among stand-outs. Many people know what it is, and many do not, but all flock to it with questions. Mine is as Dan Elam describes: hot, noisy, tight getting in and very basic: just like the originals (I was fortunate enough to see one live at Amelia Island Concours a few years ago, later driven to the judges stand by Dan Gurney and Pete Brock-have the autographs on the official programs to prove it!)

I do have a roadster as well (Unique FE) and love driving it on nice days. But I tend to go to the coupe, even on hot days. Just calls to me!
