i hear ya, i was thinking you meant it was priced to high for what it was

lollolol spend it on what? favors?.... lol
 
Nice car for sure, but the thing that ruins real cobras is that most people assume its a kit car and for that real or not I'd never pay $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ for a cobra.

Nope not even a real one cause people will always assume its a kit car. I dont want to spend $$$$$$$$ on car to try and explain what it is all the time. I want to buy a car and have people say "nice car" and not "nice kit car".
I'd rather spend that money on a Aero Supersport. Rare, more prestigious, BMW engine thats designed to sound like a spitfire, interesting design and no kitcar reputation :p
 
You're crazy!! :D I'd take the time to answer their question if I had a real cobra. It's probably one of the only pretty rare vehicles I'd want besides like a gt40 or Shelby daytona coupe for a super car more or less

Yes its a great car, but for the price there is better, Why buy an overpowered shopping cart when you can buy one that has a chassis that better designed for handling, modern brakes, suspension, powertrain etc, plus its a Car that has a mixture of Aluminium and wood. That Bmw 4.4L or 4.8L depending on the years is a great high revving V8 that was used in the M5. To me you cant beat that. Plus I see a hella lot more Cobra's around (I recall 7 in my lifetime) then Morgan Aeros (Never seen one).

Ehh the Morgans dont do anything for me really. But REAL cobras?? Probably less than that. They're probably not on the exact same level as it out of the box and being like 40 yrs older tech but u cant say ac's or shelbys didn't do great racing

I'm not denying the technology the cobra had 50 years ago, but I am not denying the technology of tube radios either from 50 years ago. But then again it is from 50 years ago. Most of the tech from the "65" cobras are pretty much dated compared to the morgan. Can you compare the morgan to the cobra. No, not really, the cobra was built in a shed using the same steel as the shed in the states by a man who used low revving Ford engine and improved them and bred it for racing. The morgan was built by a man in a shed using the same wood as his shed in England and used a high revving V8 Bmw engine 6 spd getrag tranny and bred it for touring. I dont race, I look for certain comforts that the cobra cannot offer. Since the Morgan has certain luxuries (it is for touring) it is more suitable for everyday driving.
To me its Aero SS>Cobra anyday.

I can confirm that I have seen one Cobra (paperwork and all) in my lifetime thats still one more then the morgan. Plus the Morgan most people have no idea what it is. A lot of modest car enthusiasts know what a cobra looks like. So to me a Morgan is more prestigious in that matter. (I like being different :p)
 
So no matter which one you're driving they'd still ask what it was or if it was real :D lol
I hear ya tho, it all boils down to personal preference. If I win the lottery ever I'll buy you a Morgan AND a cobra lol

That sir is the best of both worlds. It's kind of like comparing a Mazda Miata and the Base Bmw Z3 (early 2000 models). They are similar animals but the differences are enough to have 2 different cult following. I prefer the miata in terms of looks, packaging, driving experience and handling. Other people might prefer the Luxury Z3 over the basic Miata and the z3 is more powerful but its handling is compromised by its design, weight and suspension.

To me the Miata is for the Driver
The Z3 is for the Drive itself.

The Cobra and the Morgan could be compared as such :p. But at least I am convincing you to like the morgan a little more. :p
