Jeff,

While I was in Palm Springs, competing like hell against nobody who showed
up, I dropped by the great airplane museum, and noticed an "Exotic Cars"
sales location.  Looking through the windows (they were closed Sunday) I
saw a mountain of Rolls Royce's (boring) one Porsche Speedster (nice), one
Jag XK 140MC Drop Head Coupe, a half dozen of the Mercedes 220-350SL
pretend sports cars, and up front, in the third window:

A Blue-White stripe Cobra 427-SC, chrome roll bar and all.  Very few of
these made.  This one had a grand total of 50 (fifty) miles on it.  It was
appropriately priced at $500,000.  Makes that pre production Tiger look
like a bargain.

Steve

(Anyone got a half mil laying around.  Would you even dare put a mile on
it?)
