Exactly my point to begin with. It's a life sized model. I have a 93 Cobra
with 48,000 hard miles on it. It sits in the garage all winter and I can't
wait to get it out every summer. A collector would buy this car but a
Mustang lover wouldn't (to just let it sit).

When ya got that much change for a collector car you've got money for a
"driver" , for that matter probably several modded driver cars to beat the
snot out of. That's how collectors keep the collector cars pristine, they
have other toys to get the need for speed out on. And they sell / swap them
out for new ones too.......

I have to ask. After you spend a 100 grand on this thing, what do you
do with it?

Final judgment. Leave this R for the ones who have more dollars than
sense. Give me the R that's maybe been raced a few times, has some
bugs in the radiator, a few stone chips on the front of the hood and
has racked up about 60,000-80,000 miles on the odometer. I'd take
good care of it, but I'd drive it every chance I had.

Why choose an R code at all unless you actually do have investment
in your mind somewhere?

To drive something unique that has a great philosophy behind it.

No way. If I had this car, it'd have 20,000 miles on it by Xmas - most of
them above 4,000rpm.

That's what I talking about!

Now I can see protecting a car from the elements (salt, snow and some
rain) and maybe not use it as an "everyday car" but to store it away
as some sort of artwork is a joke, IMO. Life's too short, enjoy the/
your ride.
