As the owner of a continuation Cobra, I have a hard time giving a simple answer to "Is it real or a kit?". I'm quite certain the inquirer's definition of "real" is original 1960s. I'm also pretty sure by "kit" they mean assembled in someone's garage from a pile of parts. Since it is neither the question usually leads to a discussion about the continuation series and other roller brands like Superformance and BDR. But I never lead them to believe they are looking at a true original.
Note: The words "assembled in someone's garage from a pile of parts" was not meant in a disparaging manner. I have lots of respect for anyone who has the time, skills and motivation to build their own car.
