I am usually not nervous in the Cobra as long as I'm no more than 40 mph over the speed limit.
Do you get nervous while driving your Cobra?

I get nervous it will break down and leave me stranded.
Getting hit would be a blessing at this point.

I was thinking about buying another H-D a few months ago, and told my good friend who writes my family auto policies. His reply is appropriate here.
He thought about it a second, and said two words.
"women... texting'

if anything i feel confident driving it. i have built this car with some of the best parts around for performance (speed, handling braking ect...) i feel like i can stop short if i need to, speed up to avoid contact or maneuver to avoid contact. of course there is always the possibility that it is out of my control and then i have full coverage to handle the repairs.
i also have a high level of confidence in the mechanics of the car. i have done 95% of the work on it myself and the other 5% i have paid very reputable people to do. nothing has been half assed and quality has always been put first. i keep it maintained regularly so all should be good on the road. in the cars current state (see sig for list) i have been to chicago and back, about 19hrs each way. i got over 20mpg and didnt have one hiccup on the road
im much more nervous parking it and leaving it unattended than i am driving

I'll agree with that. I get pissed all the time driving with my family when I see people paying more attention to their phone than driving or doing other stupid stuff. It does get my attention but it's the same as when I'm driving my Cobra or my wife's Durango.
Man, you and Corbic are so right. I can't tell you how many times I look over and see drivers on their phones. It's crazy!!!!
I used to have a crotch rocket back in 00/01. Got rid of it because I never really used it, but it's even more dangerous driving one of those things today than it was back then.
nah, i don't feel nervous. i do everything in my power not to hit something, but even if i were to hit something, it is just life. car is too much fun to not drive it, and by driving it, you can't keep it new forever.
just last month someone rear-ended my co vert in traffic. but as said, it makes no sense to worry about things in life that you cannot control.

I hear you. With my Roush I never take it any place I have to leave it parked. My Cobra's I will, but only if I'm going in the store to grab a quick item and then I'm out......... And even then I park in BFE.......
I worry about getting ran into from some one on their cell phone. I put a lot of time, money, and energy into my car to lose it to someone not paying attention.
A while back a chick rear ended me in my pick up at about 20 miles per hour when I was stopped. Thankfully I have a receiver hitch and it didn't hurt my truck at all but it tore her car up badly. When I come to a stop now I usually stop way short and look in my rear view mirror to see what the person behind me is doing. That way I can try to pull up some if necessary.

Yeah what happened to you is something I worrying about. I mean no matter how good you or your car is being rear ended is kind of difficult to avoid.
Yep, that happened to me too. Was in my 2010 F-150 a few years ago. Same exact thing. Woman on her phone rear ended me. My whole family was in the truck. No one in my truck was hurt and no damage to my truck as the ball hitch took the brunt of it. However, her car was messed up.
Since she rear ended me I told her I was good. She said she was good, so me and the family left her at the gas station to assess her damage and call for help.
I never drive mine, so no need to worry. lol
I probably pay more attention to the idiots out there. But I seem to deal with more of them thinking my truck is slow and always wanting to get in front of me. The Cobra and zip around them if need be.

I do just because I know it would be hard to replace. But honestly I have insurance I don’t want anything to happen to it. But are lives are more important than possessions.

The 03/04 Termi is actually the reason Insurance rates are what they are today.
Ford tried to offset this by offering such a great trunk and overall interior space, but the inevitable brute force of 390 supercharged horsepower overtook and so... here we are.
OP. Take extra caution when driving your Termi. It should be noted that God-forbid some idiot on the road hits your precious collectable, you will be fully covered.
