Vehicle Description
Cobra replicas are cool, but how about an even more unique
European-inspired design that also has a V8 at its heart? Take a
good look at this 1962 Austin-Healey Sebring 5000 replica, which
like the Cobras, is filled with a performance Ford motor and that
kind of restro-cool look that makes these Anglo-American mixes so
appealing. In fact, the flared fenders, roll hoop, racing
seatbelts, louvered hood, racing stripes, and side pipes seem right
out of the Shelby playbook. But this is no Cobra impersonator. The
Healey's graceful grille is your first hint at a more well-rounded
machine. There's also a full folding top, roll-up windows, a tilt
steering column, and a Bluetooth stereo for better cruising than a
Cobra. And we absolutely love the more recent investment in the
Healey-style bucket seats done in black leather with sporty red
piping. It's all part of a total package where there have been
solid investments designed to get you excited even before you hear
the V8 rumble.

We have made plenty of Cobra references when looking at this
Healey, and it should all be taken as a compliment. After all, the
Shelby cars are terrific at getting us in touch with a driving
spirit that's both vintage and authentic. This V8-powered drop-top
excels at that, too. The difference here is that the style is even
more distinct and the features list is much longer for a more
practical car. So when you think about the price of a Cobra, this
Healey costs less but gives you so much more. That's why it's
irresistible. Call today!!!
