Ok Real 1, so "lets get real". Here is the definition of the word "replica".
"A replica is a copy that is relatively indistinguishable from the original. "
You have already admitted that your car is not an original, so.....
When someone on the street asks "is that a real one?" what they REALLY want to know is if it is an original cobra that was actually built in the sixties. So if you are so "real", maybe you should modify your response and say, "no it isn't, it is a replica of the original cars that were built in the 60's and it is more expensive than other replicas because it is has an aluminum body and Carrol Shelby built the rolling chassis."
If you enjoy the experience of your car more because you have convinced yourself it is not a replica or that it is more "real" than a Kirkham, ERA or SPF, then it was money well spent.

Very simply, I didn't mention anything about my car or the Continuation series at all until others raised it first. My first post was simply a straight answer to a straight question. You can read whatever you want into my first response but you are wrong in your assumption.
I agree with Argess to the extent that we all enjoy the positive attention our cars garner. Anyone who says they don't is...well... not telling the truth. Get real. |
