I would love a Cobra kit car.I would put an Ecoboost V6 in it like the GT40.
I will be honest with you.I teach auto-electronics and it covers everything in the car these days.They are making these cars to where the driver input matters less and less and that takes the skill out of driving.
The new automatics shift faster than anyone at a manual gear shift but where is the fun anymore? The most mechanical part of the car I teach is the transmission.The gas pedal is electronic even.
