Be interesting to see if this really happens as others have tried this the last 15-20 yrs.

I went on the website. it looks pretty awesome. and expensive. around $350,000 US dollars. my questions to them were, will there be a US Dealership? what type of warranty? how many cars will be produced? and can I get a discount? ill post their response once it is received.

I guess it's a good thing that AC still exists in some form, and wants to resurrect their most famous shape ever.

I almost like the exterior styling, but stuffing-in the 21st Century doo-dads makes it into something it shouldn't be.

Air conditioning?  Automatic?  Infotainment & GPS?  Power Windows?  Giant wheels?  Goofy halo-ring LED head/tail lights?

Those are for sissy cars.

Cobras are the definition of raw muscle.  Big engine.  Steering wheel.  Two seats.  Roll bar.  Lots of g-forces and screaming.

This new version is more like a full-size Hot Wheels.  Thankfully, right now, it's just a bunch of 1s and 0s.   

(And, why do I suddenly want a Sta-Puft marshmallow?)
