Default Cobra Quesitons, I have lots of them?

Hi all this is my first post, and i am affraid its going to be long winded. I am considering getting a cobra, currently really thinking about going with backdraft. So here is the dilema,, I want a sports car, I want it to be fast, and a roadster. I always loved the cobras so that part is sold. Now here is where the issues come in, I have never kept a car more than 2 years so resale is a big concern. I know many people will say, buy the car because you love it, but given my past patterns of not keeping cars for too long, I would be a fool not to consider this. Also I dont really care so much about being true to the original, let face it this is the 20th century and I would want some of the modern technology in the car. I am not a mechanic, nor have time to tinker and tune my cars myself. I strongly leaning toward fuel injection for reliabilty reasons. Basicly I just want to be able to get in the car on a sunday and go, no retuning every season, no adjusting carbs etc, just get in and drive. Please give me any thoughts on what you think of backdraft, resale of them, and what your experience is with fuel injection vs carb set ups. any information would be a great help.
