X2. Those who buy Cobras don't know about this site. If they did, and read the posts here, they wouldn't have bought a Cobra. :)
I bet 99% of Cobras are sold because they're on the shelves at Walmart. They see them, think "hmm now I won't get speeding tickets", spend their $30, stick it on their windshield pointed at the sky and think they're invincible now.

You're certainly right about that. Here's the image I associate with the name:

This^.
I did the same once before and bought a cheap RD that I saw on sale in a motor factors. The place got prosecuted for selling them a while after that due to them being illegal lol.
The price was a factor and I had no research whatsoever done (this forum was not around then in my defence ;)) so I got it and thought I was sorted :rolleyes:. I was just lucky not to get pwnt big time with it.
I can see why so many people buy these cobras when they are so available and cheap like that.
