I own a Cobra Replica. with the OG's going for so much money, it amazes that people actually ask, "is that a real one?" yeah right... and Jessia Alba is waiting for me to pick her up, so i gotta go. :)

the luckiest guy in all this...the one who got to drive it on and off the stage...he didnt pay a dime for the honor

@427CQBRA Why? Carroll knew what he was doing. He wanted something outrageous and over the top and "faster than anything Steve McQueen owns." He sure as hell built it too. Leno built a nice car, but it's not an original Shelby and it won't sell for 5 million either. Because it says Jay Leno on it and not Carroll Shelby. Plus this thing is just bad ass fast!

@YouDonWantonKnow Hey people are driving around in the Bughatti which cost HALF MILLION DOLLARS

When you watch Barret Jackson and particular people are buying a million dollars worth of cars.

Seems there is allot of wealthy people buying cars

@YouDonWantonKnow what do you mean with the OGs as in originals, in plural when there is only one of this kind in the world

i recently sold my cobra replica to uncle roy for 25,500 not a bad price and im thinking about geting a 340 plymouth duster...not as bad ass as the cobra but for 7500$ and put say 3000 into it i could sell it at auction for 16-20 thousand...any ideas what i should buy after that?

If Shelby had not made the ORIGINAL, there would never have been a market for the replicas, would there?

I own a Backdraft replica that I bought for my 58th birthday. I have wanted a Cobra since I was fourteen.

Try getting 800+hp with 60's technology and then try getting it to fit under a stock Cobra hood. The 2 super chargers and hood scoop start making a lot more sense.

Carroll Shelby wanted the baddest 427 Cobra when he had this built back in the day.

Edelbrock Crossram Intake with Twin Paxton Superchargers etc. He should have installed the 427 SOHC like Jay Leno eventually did to his replica, plus it would have fit under the stock hood.
