I'm 47 and can't remember a time when I didn't want a Cobra. I still have kit car magazines from the mid 80's when Cobra ownership was an improbable, but fun to ponder, dream.

No one who knows me accuses me of trying to sate a mid life crisis with a Cobra. I'm stuck in early life and a firm believer that in order to stay in that place, you gotta have fun. If that means setting off the neighborhood car alarms, hitting 130 on freeway on-ramps, occasionally getting rained on, and having my friend's wives wish I'd just stay the hell away from their husbands...well, that's a price I'm willing to pay.

The last 5 cars we've owned have been 911's. The sun started to set on the Porsche era the day I took a test drive in a used NAF 289FIA about a year ago. My knees shook for an hour after that drive and I couldn't stop smiling. As soon as I got home that day my wife knew it was hopeless to resist.

Lurk off:

My long-term plan is to save $500 a month for the next 6 years and pay cash for a new cobra... plenty of time to make a decision and I'll still be in under the average age.

I first saw a Cobra in The Gumball Rally and have watched the movie well over 30 times. If any of you haven't seen it in a while, I hightly recommend it to get your fill of Cobra. Favorite quote in the movie re: the Cobra entry:

"Very cute, very Fast, very uncomfortable, but I like that, its macho."

I just found my "Cobra" folder with all of the sales lit stamped from 1989 and 1990. Keep the dream alive.

"To internal combustion and wind in the face."

52-and on my second Cobra. #1 was a Contemporary owned from 1984-1994, #2 is an ERA acquired in 1994. The initial impetus was provided by the 1965 Car and Driver road test which I read back then. Like many I always had a $ problem when it came to original cars. Thankfully, the replicas came along and solved that problem.
