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.
