A Cobra powered by a Chevy . . .

. . . is like an Omega with a Rolex movement. 😐 Small-block Ford with Weber 44 IDF carbs . . . . . . or nothing. Turo

5, 8, 12 and 16 for me please!!

If I could pick a perfect pair, to complement one-another, it would be the Cobra and the Ford van in pic #16 - what a cute little piece of metal, perfect for transporting bikes and other stuff around

Great little car from AC but an AC Cobra it wasn't.

I actually tried to buy one back in the day, it wasn't yellow like this one but a more subtle gun metal grey but couldn't agree on price. Looking back at it I think I dodged a bullet as nice as they looked they actually weren't that fast for a small fibre

Here's one more I'd completely forgotten . . .

Thank you! I did try to balance it out a bit even though....

It's heavily American muscle car bound, I should definitely get a Shelby Cobra like you have!! There's a few Matchbox cars in there, like the DBS Volante, orange Ford Bronco, and green VW Golf MkI. A few premium (all metal) HotWheels like the Ford GTs, Da

1965 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray.

My favorite Corvette, after the " Rip Tide ". 5, 3, engine, 300 HP. Enough to have great fun. And what a body! The unmistakable interior. Indisputably my favorite American car. Well, with the Ford GT 40 and The Bad Boy, the Cobra. Best, Nicolas

On the autobahn, we find Teslas mainly in the slipstream of trucks ...

... at less than 90 km/h. The more impressed I was with a guy and his Model S who took part in a "sports" driving training of our national AA. They have a nice course for that not far from my place, some short straight parts, many curves. In the straight
