<p>I don’t have one of his cars but I wish I did. </p>

<p>Heard this on NPR driving home and my first thought was :“I’ll bet there will be a CC thread about this.”</p>

<p>My husband has ordered a reproduction Cobra (midlife crisis car). I can’t say I approve, but they are supposed to be great. He was sad to hear Shelby had passed away.</p>
