I remember hearing them all....:

Q: "Is it a kit?"
A: "No, it's been fully assembled"

Q: "Is is real?"
A: "No, you're imagining it"

Q: "Did you build it?"
A: "Yes, and they came...."

You're just jealous because I don't have to hear the "is it real" questions anymore. Everyone knows my car is "genuinely" 55 years old.

IME, the kind that doesn't care about Cobras drive around with their windows fully and permanently sealed, in their climate controlled, sterile, soulless boxes, oblivious to anything in their environment.

I usually just tell them to call Evan. He’ll be glad to enlighten them.

Its very simple guys... It needs to have a CSX vin# to be even considered in the "real" conversation.
Are the KMS/ERA/SPF cars just as nice or better? a complete different topic.

That's another advantage of buying an ERA over a CSX car, you never have to engage in the discussion.

I agree, Bill....but not a good idea to change Mike's quote without stating that you edited it

It's a real Superformance, LOL...At least when I owned CSX4236 it was a Shelby creation. Then I got smart and bought an ERA :-)

Anyone with a pulse in their brain would know that what they are asking is …" Is it a Original ?"......in my case....NO....it is a Replica....why make a smart ass answer....unless of course you are a smart ass...

Tried to change the color to red on my playful edit, but could not get the drop down to work for me. Tried to test it again on this response and I still cannot get it to work for me.

Lighten up, it was done in a playful, not malicious manner., as has been done here at Club Cobra since the beginning of the forums time on the web. For the start and finish of the argument, you'll need to research Evan's (search Real1) old posts, as this topic has been beaten so much to death that there is nothing left of the horse but ashes.

Ahhh, brings back the times when I would change RodKnock's quotes to say something completely different and generally insulting. Usually as an attempt to target an innocent third party, like ERAchas. Oh, those were the days....
