...we were at the local CVS Pharmacy ready to check out when my son spots the display of die-cast cars. I let him reach out and pick one. What does he get? The lone Shelby Cobra roadster in the field of BMWs, Porsches, Nissans, etc...The Cobra was the first car I saw and truly fell in love with as a kid. Well played little man...well played.

Good eye on that one. The Cobra's shape is just so natural and with feminine curves.

Well, the funny things my father did the same to me
And I took a convertible as well!

It's a Green, Burrago, Mercedes Benz 500SL. Weird choice, I know.

In the following week I pick more rational cars tough. A Red Lamborghini Countach and a Purple Porsche 911 Turbo Convertible.

I call those three cars bim bim.

...same here. I think the Cobra is just the ideal toddler's car or something.
