The Shelby Cobra, or AC Cobra was the result of a British-American collaboration. AC Cars of Britain was known for making compact British roadsters. They caught the attention of iconic American racer and tuner Carroll Shelby, who wondered the all-important question of what would happen if you stuck a V8 inside a compact body. The result was the AC Cobra or Shelby Cobra, a true driver’s car that had to be respected if you wanted to extract maximum performance from it. Furthermore, less than 1,000 official Cobras were made between 1962 and 1967, making the car rarer than many exotics produced since then.

Instead, you can get something, like this 1965 Shelby Cobra Replica for much less. The current owner reports that documentation is included with the sale of this Colorado-based car. So, what are you waiting for? Can you rise to the challenge and tame a Cobra? The car will teach you a lot about performance driving too – just remember to be gentle at first.
