Almost ran into a Cobra

[Strangler]

Not like anyone cares but I'd just wanted to share.

I was driving down the highway today at around 45ish MPH. The speed limit is 45 MPH. I saw a Cobra stopping at a light at the intersection. I was on the main highway and my lights was green. All of a sudden, HE PULLED OUT!!! He then just stopped his car about half way through the turn and just sat there. I hit my breaks while honking my horn and went into the next lane without even looking if there was any cars. I came pretty close to hitting him even though I was able to avoid it. No accidents this time and I was so glad there was no cars on the other lane, otherwise it would've been pretty bad for me. I didn't even have time to look for the cars in the other lane because it all happened so sudden.

The guy in the cobra just drove off like nothing happened.

I didnt know they had highways that have a 45 mile speed limit, wow, anyways I had a close call today too from my way back from work except it involved a tractor trailer, he decides to join the left lane and hold up traffic so i scoot over to the middle he doesn't see me, and almost plows into me, luckily I jumped to the right most lane, good think the Z has a tight wheel.

Are you sure it was a cobra? There are lots of replicas on the road and the average person wouldn't know the difference.

I should've been more specific. It's not the Cobra Commander.

I'm definitely sure it's the Shelby Cobra. There's no mistaking it. I don't know why anyone would go out of their way just to replicate. Makes no sense.

Yes, you should have been more specific, and why anyone would ever want to replicate a Cobra?

You must be young. The Cobra is one of the, if not the, most copied cars in the world.

Do your homework young Jedi.

Wow, I had no idea lol. That's not the Cobra that I was talking about, it was the newer one. I tried searching for the exact color but I couldn't find it. It was a goldish/tan color. Must have been custom.

The pic I posted up is similar to the one today, but different color obviously.

Don't jump into conclusions that I am young just because I don't know much about American cars or cars in general. I know how to drive cars but sure don't know a whole lot about it. Just like I know how to eat a lot of food but can't cook any.
