A friend of mine has a real 289 Cobra (CSX 2208) that he has owned since he was a teenager. He bought it for $3,000. Today it's worth at least $250,000. Talk about a return on your investment. I would love to own his car, but I've got an '03 Mustang Cobra convertible with 500hp that keeps me busy. It's not the same, but at least I've got the faster car. grin
