I though I'd try a different tact with this tread. My automobile tastes have changed quite a bit in the past 30 years (I'm 46). Has yours? Do you drive a different (second/third) car to communte? Does your horse race or is it a weekend driver? Or is it the only love of your life? Why did your change over to your present Cobra, Hyper-Stang, Lightining, or SVT? What was your favorite "Car"?

Mine is a toy - it is garaged and only driven on the nicest of days. 2nd cobra, and 3rd mustang. Ive owned other hi-po cars, and the cobra is hands down my favorite.
Daily driver is a 04.5 Cummins turbodiesel 600 Dodge Ram

Both rides are in my sig.

The 03/04 Cobra is what I was hoping for in 99. Both are daily drivers. I can't own enough cars to baby any one in particular. I work shift so I drive one on the morning shift and the other on the evening shift.
Eventually one will be strictly show material until then ... I bought'em to drive'em!

Driving a Cobra now

Driving a Cobra, or for that matter any Uber 'Sang is an automotive event for me. Until a week and a half ago I drove an F-150 becuase there was so much you could do with one of them. Now all the other vehicles are BC *Before Cobra".

since I was 16 Ive owned
1986 Nissan 200sx (crappy hand me down car)
1993 Jeep Wrangler 4.0
1991 Acura Integra Turbocharged
1994 Mazda Miata Nossed
1993 Mustang Cobra Supercharged (still own)

thinking about selling the Bronco and getting a 94-95 5.0 mustang, or maybe another Jeep Wrangler. I love 4 wheeling as much as racing.
