Then came the Series II plans. If you read the first review you would know that this would never happen.
The Cobra-like Series 2 is the successor to the ultrafast Series 1, which employed a carbon-fiber shell on an aluminum honeycomb frame. Under the hood,
a supercharged Oldsmobile DOHC 4.0-liter V8 packed more than 400 horsepower.
