And  almost impossible for a person with short legs (like me 5'5") to  back 
 
up because one must sit on the door sill and lean out to look   rearwards.  
However, several years ago I had an opportunity to drive  a real  427 Cobra 
side oiler and a Countach 2000 back to back.   Now there's a  difference in

Expensive to  maintain, hard to get in and out of, doesn't handle  well and
