The week after (26 Jan 2004), when she arrived at home after 100 km drive from the dealer at -25oC with summer tires at 21h00 at night (what a drive).  You can see the two ice circles around the exhaust pipes:

My First Ride:

Before washing the Cobra on Saturday march 27, I decided to go for my first real ride, even if the roads were dirty.  I drove 100km from Carillon to Carling Lake.  Very exciting ride.

Some pictures at Carillon, Hydro-Québec dam (was a bit cloudy):

My First Wash/Polish:

On the 27 and 28 of March week-end, one week earlier than planned, I was able to wash and wax the Cobra.  It was around 10 to 15 oC and sunny.  here are some pictures after the Zaino  polish (by the way, it gives very good results).

And when I say Zaino is very good, we can see the reflection index on this picture:

This picture show well the bumper letters and the fuel gas door (nice ass !):

Pictures of the interior and the motor bay:

The colour of seats change with the angle of the light. In reality, the seats are less purple than on the pictures.

Each individual motor of the Cobra is signed by the two mechanics that assembled it.
