Many will argue about these statements, but they are not people who have sold their cars yet... Take a look in my gallery you will see pictures of my car which, by the way, Superformance stole two of and photoshopped in some grass for their screensavers. The car was perfect and both myself and the new owner had a win-win deal at $45K. It still took 6 months to sell the car at that price. You will also see pictures of the Daytona Coupe that Bondurant drove to win the world championship in Germany, it is one of two of the 6 that are here in Scottsdale.

$105k to build a Superformance Cobra seems a bit steep (given that the roller is now a little over $40k, and was less than that a few years ago).
Must have had one heck of a motor and a bunch of modifications and all the bells and whistles.
