I like it. Is it an original or a replica?

It's a mark 1 right? I though for a minute it had fuel injection, couldn't see the carbs.
What did he do to the Cobra pit headers? They're all... painted!

Forgot about the velocity stack for a minute. I thought the fuel lines looked like a rail for a minute too.
I meant the "Cobra Pit" headers, they were a custom fabrication by the Holman and Moody Nascar team, they got the nod as the factory team. They used a ceramic coating on them, and after the first lap or so, they would glow cherry red... After they had cooled, they had the most beautiful coppery colour.

They were called "Cobra Pit" headers, and originals are worth something to the order of $2000 a piece. I was just offended because they were painted, not the beautiful coppery gold colour

Well, that guy has ambition, thats for sure. I'll be happy with a Turbo 968. And a Cobra. And a GT-40 MK2. And a Lotus Elise. And a 959. I'm going to stop now, before I flood this forum.

I regret to say, you are gravely misinformed if you think Lamborghini can compete with Ferrari. If they could, they would be able to stay independant, and not be bought by Chrysler, and Audi.

Yeah, but Ferraris are much lighter. They brake better, experience less fade, make better acceleration from 100-150 mph, are much easier to handle, and you really know when you're about to lose control in a Ferrari. Not so easy in a Lambo, and harder still to regain control.
The 550 Maranello is based off the older 456 GT. It is a luxury GT which has been tuned for high speed cruising. At 180 mph, you'd really rather be in a 550 than any Lamborghini.
