looks horn, what are the engine options and can you get a manual, just change the wheel to something a bit less bulky.

Links,
http://www.copycatcars.com/index.htm http://www.clubcobra.com/forums/show...threadid=89858 So you can have this thing for $22,000 plus donor car (assuming you biuld it yourself), is this correct? So you could pick up a BA xr8 for $15000 + $22000 =  : Plus all the other costs that are hiding at this piont  edit:put in second link Last edited by stockel; 20-08-2008 at 04:46 PM. |

Yep, this is a copy of the retro Cobra concept on wikipedia. I wonder if you can get one with an FG dashboard and Boss 290 now?

Hardly a Cobra anymore. Looks like its got elec windows in the doors which makes it even more appealing. Keeps the wind out better for a more comfortable drive on the highway. Not sure about the front guards at the headlights/bonnet intersection and the rear though, probably need to get used to it.
Should be manual however, autos in that should be banned. |

Needs a V8 for the audio effects. And to make the engine bay look right.

What an odd looking chassis. It looks to have been built like a boat not a car.

Great for a family car. Doesn't really have anything sporty about it though. |
