State of art version of the ac cobra based on the cobra's of the 1960's but new with new thinking.

Looks pretty cool and state of the art. I'm sure the price is too!

$500K... I'd put that money toward a REAL one if I were in such a position.

I like it, but 500K is gonna make for a pretty small demographic.

My 2 cents:

They're going to be competing against cobra kit companies and the real thing, whether they like it or not. Based on that, the choice to do so much proprietary stuff (why in the world would you want a proprietary transmission design?!?!) serves only to drive the price up and the potential customer base down.

My thoughts exactly. I am sure the car would still be expensive, but running the brake fluid through the control arms? Cool for a show car, but what happens in 10 years when this company, like so many others, is long gone and you need to replace one of those proprietary design pieces. Mixing in some off the shelf parts would likely make this car a little more realistic.

Talk about back from the dead! For some reason I forget I stumbled across some stuff on the Iconic and was wondering if this company ended up going bust. I assume it did...
