That's certainly reasonable. You don't have to time the market perfectly (be it Cobras, stocks, or anything else); I think prices now are pretty good. And you'll be surprised how quickly you can spend a few grand on absolutely nothing with these cars. Seriously though, I will tell you that I have had (and continue to have) more fun with my Cobra than anything else I have bought in my life. I actually get pleasure from it just knowing that it's sitting in the garage, which is a little nutty -- kind of like posting seven thousand messages to a stupid car forum.
