Is this a real one or a continuation?

Looks like it could be 2300.
The number "12" looks a bit large on the tail end.

Let's imagine you owned CSX2300, or any other original Daytona Coupe. Let's further imagine that you enjoyed certain competitive events, and your Cobra was constantly being invited to participate in a variety of them. Given that you have the financial wherewithal to own the car in the first place, but mindful of the fact that it is essentially a work of art, do you (a) say screw it, let's drive the snot out of it, or might you (b) make a perfect copy for less than 5% of the genuine car's value, and race it instead? Just speculating...

[Richstang]

It's easy to go with "b", but I'm guessing your question was rhetorical.

Also, the cowl vents look a bit taller than in vintage photos, especially the drivers side.

If this 'Daytona' is the one Kenny Brack drove before at Goodwood, the ACOC Cobra Register Replicas Appendix (on the internet for members) records it as: VIN Asserted CSX2300 [Clone], Date 2010, Additional Information Body, substructure and some chassis components built by Lech Kowalski. Car finished and race-prepared by Lanzante Ltd. FIA HTP. [Lech Kowalski, Max Karlsson, Dean Lanzante] (Clone of the existing original)

PS: Ned's 'perfect copy' is being kind. All race-leading FIA HTP 'historic' cobras use modern technology to achieve performance much in excess of the original: 90+ more bhp, 300% more torsional stiffness (roadsters) and up to 100kg (220lbs) less weight.

 The video reveals allot especially the burnout portion. The car doesn't "move" like a genuine Daytona coupe. It also appears to be very "darty' in the front end which is not normal to me. Sounds like my eyes were correct in that it is a copy.

Look at the differences between the #12 car in the first video and the #12 at the Daytona Coupe reunion. The decals, scoops on the hood and vents in the tail lamp panel are all different.

The shape of the quarters at the tail lamp panel is different too.
