The Shelby Cobra. Few names in automotive history evoke such immediate passion and reverence. Born from Carroll Shelby's audacious vision to stuff American V8 power into a lithe British roadster, the Cobra became an instant icon on track and street. Its raw, untamed nature and stunning performance cemented its legend, particularly the fearsome 427 S/C models which, with their flared arches and side pipes, looked every bit as menacing as they performed. With only a few hundred original 427 S/C Cobras ever built, their scarcity led to a demand for high-quality reproductions that could capture the essence of Shelby's masterpiece. Enter Superformance, widely regarded as the pinnacle of Cobra reproductions. Unlike many kit cars, Superformance models are meticulously factory-built, often to a standard exceeding their original counterparts, and are famously the only Cobra reproductions to be officially licensed by Carroll Shelby himself. This 1965 Superformance Cobra MKIII, finished in a classic shade of blue with white racing stripes, embodies that ethos perfectly. With just 17,575 miles on the odometer, its heart is a potent 408 cubic inch stroker V8, a powerplant built by legendary Superformance expert Ohlhoff Racing, ensuring a truly visceral driving experience through its manual transmission. This Superformance MKIII represents a meticulously crafted homage to one of motoring's greatest legends, ready to deliver thrills with every drive.
