As we can see there are any number of measures for the best. I like mine best and you like yours best. But for a more objective view we need to look elsewhere.
There's these guys that made one once that I thought showed they were pretty good at building cars. If you want a Cobra, they have some decent capabilities as shown in this thread (below). If I had some real folding money, I'd give them a call.

Thanks a lot

What are you guys still arguing about? The OP has a "good indication" of best Cobra replica. Which I think in this instance means Kirkham. 
Just kidding. Carry on.

We should all really start some sort of Reality show, if Pawn Stars, Storage Wars, etc, can make them millions of $$$, we have enough characters here and all the cool cars to make us BILLIONS...

SAI "might" be as good as a Kirkham, certainly no better, but at double the cost. Given that, it would be one costly brain fart to go with SAI when you have the Kirkham option, ergo Kirkham trumps SAI for "best" in the aluminum body category.

To some people. Exactly right.
The problem is you guys spend more time typing then reading what I've said.

The only real Cobra is a Snake that can bite you and then you die, everything else are just little cars that look alike ...some built better than others. Get real they're all fun and go fast. It's just bragging rights and how much money your willing to spend, bottom line if it makes you happy ...it's the Best Cobra.
Peanuts, Popcorn, Crackerjacks....step right up and get yours.

Well, when you stop repeating the same phrases that you have used for the last decade, then maybe we'll listen. Who can blame us?

What if bragging rights and money make you happy, then what?

Understand.
I have grown weary of following this thread with a pooper scooper.
Move on, boys...
The OP sure has.
