Not the only one for around $90k - https://www.hemmings.com/classifieds...a/1845771.html - I've seen most go for around $60k. |

That's not in the same league as the ugliest Cobra I've seen. Fortunately for you guys, I don't have a picture. But imagine a cream color with frequent accents in purple and orange. Then hang every accessory you can buy from JC Whitney on it. ... And he/she brought it to a car show for display.

I have to admit those are some fugly looking bumpers. Correct that and it's an over-accessorized, stretched wheelbase Excaliber.

Agree any vehicular creations beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Who are we to criticize. I'm waiting to see someone's idea of a Rat Cobra that will draw some interesting criticism.

It isn't that bad. Remove those bumpers, change the seats, and do a few other minor changes and it would be a nice looking car. The a/c ducts in the dash kind of screw up the interior, but that is livable.
Beats that red Chevy Cavalier style Cobra that shows up every once in a few years on Ebay. That thing is an abomination.

102.5" wheelbase? That's quite a stretch! Those bumper hoops are perhaps the worst I've seen.

... slight similarity. But I highlight the overall motif with the tasteful use of black striping and other black accoutrements.  |

And don't forget the "wrapping" around around the roll bar. 
Besides the staid, if not camouflage-like color, I don't think it's the ugliest Cobra I've seen. While it's certainly not a Cobra for my taste, those bumpers are beyond hideous, I think the seller might be a meth user at that price. |
