Superformance AC Cobra Replica review

[@mustang1191]

The little giggle when it lights off explains the essence of the Cobra. In pure street from, one of the most beautiful cars ever. Thanks for sharing.

[@garyhaber333]

Cheers from CA. Just bought a Lone Star replica from a dealer in Vegas. Haven't had more fun in decades. And love the sound.

[@MattMaranMotoring]

Haha that first acceleration was great! I really didn't expect you to have this much fun in a Cobra but it was very fun to watch!

[@NickMurray]

I was kind of shocked how much fun this thing is! Maybe not the best winter ride however : )

Big money DSLR on a suction cup mount.... scary Nick. Scary...

[@jimbo2629]

I had a replica with Rover V8. which I built from a rolling chassis with Jaguar parts. I remember overtaking in second gear starting at 30 mph. I looked at the speedo as I pulled in . I couldn’t believe it. Great car, but some second hand bits, so required maintainance . It made me realise how well made modern cars are. Speed bumps were a problem, and so were police men who stopped you just to look at it. Open air driving is wonderful. Most fun car I ever had. I should have kept , but I’m too old for messing with cars, and driving on congested roads is rarely a pleasure now in England.

[@pm512]

Really becoming a fan of William. His "help me" comment was hilarious. Thx Nick. Thx William.

[@vukken99]

nick the biggest part of this ride is not the car brother it is your reaction of joy riding it....two thumbs up!!

[@khunopie9159]

Is 'smiles per mile' equal to 1.6 giggles per km?

[@garyjones2582]

Those Cobras always bring out those kind of giggles...

[@quikstop4347]

Pure entertainment! Good to see you off the beaten track, this car reminds me of riding the most basic of motorbikes and flying the simplest of planes - it's all about the senses.

[@nickzarnetske9994]

I've this car since I first saw one, it's a top three all time favorite car for me. While I'll never see a real one I was given a chance to drive a replica as well. What a ride, exactly how you portray it in the video. While I don't care for some of the ways this car was made there's no denying the fun factor in tooling around town and blasting the highway in one of these!! It really should have side pipes is all I'm saying... Great video Nick, I'm glad you got to experience these amazing vehicles!

[@computiNATEor]

I love your giggle, it tells me when you're having fun!

[@whowell117]

Shifter is wrong! Perfer the jack stand bumper.I want my pipes running down the side. Not out the back!

[@andrewmoorhouse687]

Great car! The original is one of the all time classics, though I bet the reality is replicas are potentially even better. As you say, a useable gearbox and proper brakes (always useful!) The 427 was the Bugatti Veyron (maybe that should be Chiron now) of it's day - the fastest accelerating production car - with I think 0-60 around the 4 seconds mark - no doubt someone out there has the actual figure. This was a time when Lambos and such were barely breaking 7 seconds, so this really was in a league of it's own. Not bad for a mongrel created by the great Carroll Shelby - big American V8 in a lightweight British shell. Best of both worlds!

[@sixstrings222]

My absolute favorite automobile bar none

[@claussalt8081]

That giggle when you first fired her up said it all....its raining here in England again....

[@DonFather]

Nick, you don't even giggle like this with your new Porsche. I think it's time you cheat on it and trade it in for this beauty.

[@missjose9739]

How I admire having a car

[@MamaMedzOfficial]

wow ! what great car even replica,,,drive safe MR.

[@ikaustralia]

Nick's laugh when he goes onto the highway: Wha-ha-ha-ha... is something! =)

[@GETUPANDGO]

One of my favorite cars of all time

[@creforce]

I'm not gonna lie I could trade everything I own just to own one of those ONE day and my life would be perfect. My dream car!

[@garyhaber333]

Beautiful car. Beautiful color. Beautiful sound.

[@thefridgeman]

It's not for you. No place for the dogs AND the gorillas. And it will mess Becky's hair.

[@NickMurray]

So true

[@MrBrasile87]

My dream/objective is a superformance gt40! Great company Superformance!!

[@ggarrison1087]

Superformance is one of the best makers of cobra reps. Also do Daytonas and GT40s quite well. Not cheap...and of course each one comes with 12 airbags.

[@HEKTIC458]

Silver colours look so good on old cars

[@snicky35]

Haha, you had a smile a mile wide! Yes, their exactly like a Caterham 7. You want some real fun, take it for a lap or two around Lime Rock. I have been told on the 351 Windsor engines, that you need to have the Aux fan running during the Summer months in low speed and stop and go traffic to avoid overheating. But for 50k you can beat the fun factor.

[@edyb2653]

Would be a great side car, some day. And it fits into your garage, next to the C4-2. Keep it in mind, maybe..?

[@wincrasher2007]

What a beauty!

[@MTobin1000]

Nick, look up the word "cool" in the dictionary and you'll see a picture of this car. Is it practical? NO, Is it drivable in winter? NO....is it a super fun way to spend a Sunday afternoon on the highway and byways of Connecticut? You bet your ass it is !!!! What a great story...thanks for Sharing this with us Nick. (Mike in Ohio)

[@Rickzette23]

Thnk you my frend.i really appreciate your friendship.tnx again and I will pray for ur success.nice car terry.😄😄

[@richmaeusa4433]

This is beautiful love it unique and enjoy to ride and drive i love joy ride driving in beautiful place

[@ImLeuff]

50 grand seems like a good value. But seeing that sweet 9 grand MR2 in their inventory, maaan I need a bigger garage

[@venom5809]

Tissot T-Touch, I had one of those awhile back when they first came out.

[@shibumi5210]

Correction: side pipes WERE accurate for the 427 Cobra, when you're talking the "early models" you are talking about the 289 Cobra derivation... I still remember reading about the '67 Cobra in Playboy and the writer mentioned to caution your dates not to burn their legs on the sidepipes getting into the car... lol

[@dougbloom3672]

No side pipes No go

[@konliner9286]

I actually like it without sidepipes.

[@McTAnGuS]

That sound is glorious

[@craigyirush3492]

You say the original Cobra had a 427 in1965. But the original Cobra was built in 1962 and had a 260, soon changed to the 289 (which most of them had). Shelby had a lot of trouble selling the later 427s. Great video, btw. These guys are the only legit/licensed replica company afaik. Pete Brock worked with them. They also do a Daytona Coupe and a GT40. Matt Farah reviewed both recently.

[@signs80]

Craig Yirush true, but 289s are boring as hell

[@stephenknight4340]

And many of those 427's ended up being the less expensive 429's.

[@hyciq]

Damn you really are trusting that suction cup mount

[@yoomitv]

Sending my love and support to your channel. Thumbs up

[@evanwheeler7687]

Loved it! Are we ever going to see your impressions of the RC-F that you teased a while back with your friend?

[@NickMurray]

No he sold it before I could review it

[@Pinoyjapantravel]

Thank you for sharing this video 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@ianirvin8561]

If it's a superformance you can call it a continuation since shelby has signed the rights of the shelby cobra (AC) to superformance. If you want the original car you can opt for the graceful british built AC.

[@kuyacarling2356]

You have a nice Ventage Car. Thank you for Sharing

[@eriksmithdrummer]

Great Monthy Python quote in the start :)

[@Joyce-sunshine]

Wow.. That cobra is fire🙌🙌

[@charlesfoster141]

When XRP moons I will own one of these if I live long enough. Age 65 and counting. Hope it only takes 2 to 3 years.

[@pranavarora7933]

I hope xrp moons !! We are in the same boat!

[@mexistratman1]

Was binge watching your channel yesterday so I'm glad to see a new video! Any chance of a new A4/S4 review anytime soon?

[@NickMurray]

Yes one coming in the next few weeks

[@NA0533]

These look very nice

[@alexhc21]

Finally a Cobra without side pipes! I love the look but don't think I could own one. Burnt legs aren't my favorite thing in the world

[@gingerbreadman7946]

I am a salesman for superformance and have a black roadster like this ON HAND if you are in the market.

[@MichaelNNguyen]

Awesome ride.

[@trezhatv]

Hi my friend...this is .tesha channel...nice to meet u too sorry I can't use my. Mean acc it's in a limit that's why

[@asarubin-crump780]

Wow, what a cool car!

[@Javelinfanatic]

Great channel, and even better last name!

[@jobydog8399]

Love your vids nick. lol it looked like you were wrestling this beast the entire ride.

[@pensive69]

just saw this - i think it's stupid to have dash toggles w/o labels nice ride none the less.

[@bigtexhand]

So...is it easy to drive? It must be something special to get you that giddy. Great clip as always! You should've waited till full on winter cold to test this though. I can see you dressed for Alaska ,flying down the highway, people just shaking their heads and loosing their shit as an Eskimo and a gorilla fly past them.

[@bkeen7013]

Love your videos! Any update on the delivery date of your new 911?

[@NickMurray]

No update but I have asked only to tell me when it is ready that way it is a surprise

[@ronsoyka2555]

Nick- inaccurate to call the Superformance make a replicar, which you did seeral times in the video. They are producing under license from Shelby, so the registrations (in US, at least) will show as a Shelby, not as a 'kit car'.

[@CherlyAycardo]

I love it My friend....

[@marshalhaynes3007]

Nick: Who makes a reliable, good-looking, reasonably priced (under $100K) replica?

[@nibhanbaig6675]

In pakistan you can find the same thing for about 10000

[@rossian77]

My absolute must have fun car that's been on my list for years. And FYI your giggle is like subaruwrxfan's giggle upon squashing thy right foot 😂😂😂

[@iamnotme2335]

kit cars are so nice. so unfortunate it doesn't have a 427, but still gorgeous nonetheless

[@AdamLeask]

Can we hear more about your time driving the Caterham in the UK?

[@wickedleeloopy2115]

Looks good sounds good

[@cnh1184]

Great clip Nick. Giggles/Mile? Think you may be on to something there.

[@presentdaydreams2870]

super perfomance.. AC cobra

[@Mr91495osh]

Real good sound

[@fobuu]

great review

[@J917F]

hey nick, have you ever seen the "small" 289 cobra, and if so, which body style do you prefer, 289 or 427?

[@chrisjensen2483]

George Haltingbury 289

[@HL99DMD]

Beautiful!!

[@outlawamps]

Why does no one use a dash cam and run through the gears hard on these cars, like they were meant to be driven?

[@Pinoyjapantravel]

Wow nice car 🚘 sir 👍👍👍

[@TedwardDrives]

going to cancel your 991.2 order now?

[@NickMurray]

If I could find me a mint 1997 Pontiac Sunfire with the 3 speed auto in yellow I would!

[@TedwardDrives]

I'll be on the lookout!

[@rotoehu9266]

Nick Murray :you mean the Aztek didn't come in yellow?! Otherwise surely that would be at the top of your list.

[@ArtVandelayOfficial]

don't look past a sweet used Murano convertible Nick

[@malcolmgay2967]

Does that mean the ideal garage should have a Toyota Corolla and a COBRA...

[@petedavis8701]

Great car

[@iamthefuture.6358]

I want a replica I don't care if it is even slower than the cycle.

[@iamnotme2335]

I love it!!!

[@JamesDownes]

Who drives the camera car

[@TheZane03]

James Downes chui

[@JamesDownes]

😂👍

[@AMB-fe3dn]

very cool!

[@EnzoCooooolbmw]

How much do it cost to make one of this ?

[@mreid08]

Who the hell ran duel exhaust out the back?????

[@MrValaras]

Such a sexy car

[@edwatters5788]

Hey Nick whens the 911 arriving?

[@firdaushanapiah7691]

He can't put away his kiwi eeccent.... "seeeven" lol!

[@claussalt8081]

Where did you race the Caterham over here?

[@NickMurray]

Brands hatch.

[@cls63amgwagon34]

Idk, there's something wrong with me, but I don't find the cobra to be all that attractive, really at all... and the fact that it's a replica, meh... I can however appreciate the engineering of putting a 7.0 L V8 in such a tiny and lightweight package

[@Johndoyle83]

How tall are you? You look like a tall guy, do you fit okay?

[@MBisFrenchy]

What do you think about a base premium A4 (2017) for a first car? (yes a lease and job will pay).

[@scottsherman7069]

MBisFrenchy Did you go for it? In my opinion buying anything on a lease is stupid, it’s a complete waste of money.

[@teresitabiaco2339]

hello sir

[@rizaESims]

Hi new friend here let's keep in touch😉

[@scottmacneil7054]

😎no 427 No sidepipes.....next

[@whitroc01]

left his E brake on the whole time.

[@garyhaber333]

But its a slabside? Its a cobra... You gotta have the sidepipes. 😱

[@johnarthur6367]

It is not a slab side, it is a 427 body style with street trim exhaust. Please learn your history

[@FATBAZ01]

Why add music. V8/V12 is sounds enough.

[@SuperOle2011]

If this is really a Superformance, it's an insult to call it a replica... All their cars are made from original factory tooling... 100% licened cars

[@msdgelacio138]

Wow it's a nice and beautiful car ilove to ride too,I hope u can visit me in my hauz tnx

[@yashvardhansinghsolanki6391]

Wait where the fuck are the side exhausts

[@rterry2752]

" I really dont know much about theses cars"
