$5.4 million for a little car which I would have to shoe horn myself to get inside the things. At 6ft 2 and 3/4, and long legs, I would be sitting with my nose and eyes above the windshield. I need something bigger. Neat little car, though.

A few decades back, I took out a 911 for a really fun test drive at a nearby dealership. Almost needed KY to get into the damn thing!

geezer john:) - 6’5”/275#

PS - When you ride in on a BMW K100 RS with Luftmeister turbo, they’re much more likely to let you take their car out for a fun time:). And FWIW - cars aren’t nearly as much fun as a good, fast MC!!!!!!!!

For me as a teenager, it was a 1975 Yamaha Enduro DT400. Now I have a 2012 Triumph Tiger 800XC. I like dual sport bikes for this environment, and for longer trips. My longest ride on that 2012 Triumph was taking as much two lane blacktop as I could find and rode back to Fort Campbell, KY, then to the Smoky Mountains in Eastern TN. It was a 3.5 week trip. Pure relaxation and took my time.

I can see where you insure this for it being stolen or lost in a fire or something like that, but considering a 427 cobra is a scary little bitch that I’ll bite you hard, what would the driving insurance look like for this? Or when you have a car like this I assume you don’t drive it very much, or do you just basically self insure for accidents.

Granted there is a financial loss, but I assume if you own a Cobra like this you are part of that huge Cobre fan base, and if you wrecked one of these I assume you would not be very well thought of.

I saw that...there was a 69 Yenko COPO Camaro w/ the L88 power plant that came on soon after. Not near the same class of $$$ but still out of my range being they only made 69.
