My 911 is like that to some extent, but it has real creature comfort like dang good AC, and heat, and electric windows, and comfortable seats.

I bet you would not want to drive the Cobra 4,000 miles in July in Florida.

One of the local guys here has a replica Cobra coupe. Just fantastic looking machine. The one made in South Africa. It is a cool car. I think it is a Daytona Coupe.
That isn't entirely true, it does have two cup holders on the tunnel. Seats are high back buckets out of a Dodge Stealth. They are vented leather and are comfy.

I would not want to drive ANY car 4000 miles in Florida. I would drive the Cobra at Sebring or Daytona Infield.

Remember, I had that car in an area hotter that where Sid lives. Just gotta wear a hat to protect the noggin skin. I used to think it was funny when I would go turn the key on and the temp gauge would already register. It starts at 125*.
