Default Ac Cars

Well I never thought I would ever be back on this site, nor did I ever think that I would say what I'm about to say.

For you people out there that think AC doesn't exist in Malta, I can tell you that it does. Malta is pretty cool I might add. If you still don't believe that there is an AC in Malta, I guess the Discovery Channel wasted a lot of money filming a company in a country that isn't really there.

Ring the Discovery Channel Canada, I'm sure they would be happy to send you a DVD of the show.

Secondly I had the misfortune/fortune of getting involved with AC when they were in a transitional stage and times were tough. It was very hard, and a little hurtful at times.

The Dust has settled for me at least and I would like to offer my opinion. It may not count for much, but It looks like AC is doing a good job keeping the brand alive. The cars are different in better ways and they look great in the photos. Change is good, at least for most people. You don't see Corvette drivers moaning that the new corvette doesn't have the same tail lights from 1953.

There are only two companies in the world that have any right to reproduce a cobra or a cobra look alike, those companies are AC CARS and Shelby. That's it, no questions, ifs ands or buts, they made the originals, end of story,or do people forget that.

All these experts out there, if a knock off cobra is so wonderful, then go buy your wife a Tiffany Neckless at a Chinese Junk Shop and say its the real things. We'll see who's sleeping with the dog.

Good luck to AC, the cars look good. If somebody still has the passion for the persuit of perfection you'll get there.


An AC Fan.
