How can ANY of you guys not want to cruise around Main Street in this car?

Women would constantly be throwing panties at you..

I hope to build one of those "new and improved" Cobra kits when I have the money..

no doubt about it, this car is one of the best sports cars ever, but there are so many kit (replica) cars made of it, that it has to be cool and not sub-zero, just due to the fact that everyone will be asking you whether it is real or not

Sub-zero for me. Classic shape - looks perfect with zero wasted metal. It looks powerful, has the rumble to shake the ground (427 particularly) and was the fastest accelerating road car in its day. Plus it has Le Mans history.

this one is very very close to subzero.... 2 or 3 weeks ago more then 10 cobras past my way, but sadly i couldn't turn an follow them because there was too much traffic there. but the sound of those machines was sensationell! sadly a very rare sighting!

subzero by far, take a drive in one of these things, you will cry, evacuate your bowels, and orgasm all at once

The car looks amazing but what's more important is that it sounds just like a cobra 427.. :mrgreen:.. You can feel it coming from miles.. You feel the car when hear it then see it..

I want one... sub zero..

Fantastic! Powerful, Beautiful and Rare! Best car EVER made...EVER!!!!!!!!! I'd take this car over Koenigseggs, Lambos, Ferraris, anything else, the Cobra trumps it!

I've seen one real one at a classic racing show. (was a racing model itself) the license plate said "ITSREAL" on the back.

I've seen several kit cars around where I live, I've been investigating what it would take to get a kit car, preferably already assembled. As I live in an apartment and don't have the facilities, nevermind skills to build the car.

It's a far off ambition but one I intent to fullfill. Either a cobra roadster or a cobra daytona. They are actually similar in price for the kits.

I had an FFR 427 Cobra and can tell you in no uncertain terms that this car deserves it's own freezer. It's "Absolute Zero" nothing can be cooler!

SUB-ZERO without a doubt. I love to have one of the Kirkham replicas in brushed aluminum with white stripes. Too bad they're pricey as hell.

A genuine Cobra is very cool. A replica is a pathetic piece of glassfibre-bodied lump for the wannabes. If you can't afford the real deal (who can?), buy something else that is light and has a big V8. I can recommend a Morgan +8, but a TVR will also do the trick.

Shelby still makes them actually.

Ok, that's right. And they don't use glassfibre I suppose...
Although I wouldn't be upset if someone gave me a new Shelby Cobra, I still think that they somehow fall between the 60's ones and the replicas.
