I didn't realize that the "cobra" dated back to 1980.
And this is painfully true today: “Whether you like life with turbochargers or not, you might as well get used to it.” |

That Bro-ham looks pretty darn nice and big for that period. |

No longer an expression of anything reasonably current in the automotive world, they still received surprising respect. That good feeling has obviously vanished over the last thirty years—near-perfect versions of these cars now come stunningly cheap. |

What cracks me up is when someone takes a vehicle like that, slams it or lifts it and put either undersized or over sized wheels and tires on them. Take a luxurious ride and make it into a teeth rattler or something that can hardly manage a round about. Never made any sense to me.
