Officially in the market!!
3 Attachment(s)
Hi,
I wanted to introduce myself. I've been in love with the Cobra from day one, and I considered building one around 2000, and got hooked on Superformance kits when I went to a car show at Charlotte Speedway back in 2002-2005. Life happened, and I've gotten into Germany cars with technology, but have always wanted something analog and old school. I'm now in a position to pick up a cobra to start my car collection. Hopefully I will not ask too many silly questions, and that my search goes well. My 2 favorite colors are the standard blue and white stripe, and the silver with black stripe. Back in 2005. The old BMW stable. Current V8 stable. :D Awaiting a Cobra to join the party. Gerald |
Hi Gerald, and welcome to the madness!
You will be happy with your choice of Superformance. Have you been able to take a ride or test drive one yet? You wrote that you're "not in a position" to buy a Cobra. Did you mean to write that you're now in a position to buy? Or what's your timeline? |

Yep!!! Superformance!! Resale is not all bad either! I've had a number of different kits, replicas, rollers or what ever you want to call them. Good Luck on your choice as I'm sure I will get hammered on this.

Gerald,
Welcome! Superformance makes great cars, they have quite a following. Not sure where you are located, but look in the Club Forums to find a group near you and meet up with the locals. There are bound to be several Superformance owners that would be glad to show you their cars. Take a look on Cobra Country as well, a great place to window shop. You can buy new or find a nice ‘used’ one and save a lot of money … there are lots of choices. Most of all have fun, you will meet a lot of great people here. - Tim |
Thanks for the welcome. Sorry, that was supposed to be "Now" looking for one, or at least starting the research regarding changes over the production cycle (pre 1000/1800 cars), and engine options. I'm looking used versus brand new.
I haven't sat in one since that picture was taken back in 2005. I'm in Houston, and I've seen a few cobras in town but I don't remember any being Superformance cars. I know radical roadsters is near, but they specialize in backdraft cars, and I think I still prefer Superformance, unless the prices really are all in the mid $60K+. |

Gerald-
Amazing to find you here! I guess guys who have driven Z4M coupes think alike! I'm putting a deposit on an ERA kit shortly. I'm going with a 428 ci BB with dual carbs. I haven't decided if I'll "assemble" the motor myself, or use an engine builder. I have a lead on a rebuilt 428 short block in Houston, but I'm still considering options. If you can, go to the next Houston Cobra Club meeting and talk to the guys there. That's what I did in December. Good guys with a bunch of knowledge. They also have a group forum on Yahoo. See you at the Houston BMWCCA banquet. Jeff Conley |
We have a customer Superformance MK III available as a resale unit. Indigo blue with white stripes. Ford Racing 392 CID/475 HP with a TKO 600. Coated headers and sidepipes, top, tonneau and very well sorted.
