Don,
Yes it's a replica built under licensing from Carroll Shelby...so you get the same look of the original with all modern components...plus the paint job is spectacular...
Well the engine isn't fully broken in yet - but from seat of the pants I think it would spank my TT in a straight line. Seriously...no joke...this thing is insanely fast.
To compare them is tough as they are so different...it has no AC, no power anything, no windows, no roof, no radio...nothing but the raw basics...and I love it...it's a pure driving experience with nothing to distract you but the ringing in your ears from the huge roar it makes!
The suspension is totally modern...bilstein shocks, wilwood brakes, etc.

Well...I've become a bit of an "expert" on these cars now Don...you can get great deals on used ones...and someone else has done all the hard work for you already!
Let me know if you would like any insight.
While the Porsche "brotherhood" is excellent...I've been blown away by the Cobra guys...you get a once in a lifetime car experience and a great group of people as well.
