    While I dearly love all iterations of the Shelby Cobra, my first choice would be this one. Pure, elemental, and more than enough power. Now if I can only win a lottery!!

    keep both hands on the steering wheel, except for shifting. the 289 is one of my Favs to double the HP on. 400 HP/6000RPM street fighter Engines.

    What a sweet sound of an American true sport car, wow! And it's only a 289! Imagine a 427, incredible!

      @Nomen Clature I agree! It was the same with 60's era Covettes, the small block was sweeter car IMHO.

      I think the 289 sounds way better than the 427

      @@Lee-cs67 The Cobras that Carroll Shelby got a hold of weren’t just AC Cars with Ford 289 engines thrown in them. Carroll changed almost everything in the suspension and heavily modified the chassis. This car is the result of both British and American efforts 🇬🇧🇺🇸

      The 289 was the more successful race car on track.

    My ‘67 Sunbeam Tiger has a similar 289 growl (kissing cousins both engineered by Shelby :). The Cobras curves are prettier!

    Always like the 289 body style, without the side pipes and the steroid musculature of the 427 model. Coupled with the fact that the 289 model is the one that won most of the races

      The only thing word is the people using computers while driving, I cannot imagine a more dangerous driving condition.
