Hi all,
I have been lurking this forum for over 2 years,reading and seraching numerous questions and topics. This forums has an outstanding wealth of information which helped me decide on what i really wanted in a cobra. So now i can proudly say im the new owner of ERA#456. After owning numerous sports cars all i can say is WOW! im overwhelmed with this car, it is in a league of its own.The drive,the feel,the smell,the power, nothing comes close to this. My wife thinks im nuts,she catches me staring at the car in the garage for hours.I now understand what the madness is all about,and hopefully it will never fade away. Here are a few pics of the car.

Glad to be here.
Ted.

Congratulations.

Be sure and contact ERA. They will give you access to owner only files on their web site. The files can be very helpful when you need to fix something.

John,
Thanks for the tip, I am actually looking in refreshing some of the front suspension components, they don't look like they are due to be changed ( the car has 6k miles). But I like to start with some new parts which I consider critical. I sent an e-mail at ERA requesting some part numbers, hopefully it won't be too long in getting them since I'm planning on doing some wrenching this week end.

Nice looking car Ted, I looked for an older car with similar features for a couple of years. Before biting the bullet. You'll love it.
