This 1965 Superformance Cobra MKIII is a stunning, professionally built Shelby Cobra replica finished in breathtakingly iconic Lightning Blue and it delivers an absolutely visceral driving experience! When it comes to Shelby Cobra replicas, Superformance stands in a league of its own-delivering what is widely considered the finest Cobra reproduction available today. For this reason, Superformance is the only manufacturer of Cobras officially licensed, authorized, and endorsed by Carroll Shelby himself. What truly sets Superformance apart is that in being the exclusive builder granted full rights by Shelby to replicate his legendary 1960s race cars, the Superformance Cobras are largely considered the most correct, authentic representation of a true Shelby Cobra. Unlike kit cars assembled in garages from salvaged components, every Superformance Cobra is hand-assembled by skilled craftsmen in a dedicated factory setting. These cars arrive as fully finished rolling chassis - complete with show-quality paint, premium interiors, and fully installed components including independent front and rear suspension, Wilwood disc brakes, rack-and-pinion steering, and a limited-slip rear differential. Superformance uses only new, top-quality parts, ensuring a tight, rattle-free driving experience that rivals even modern performance cars. From the leather-trimmed cockpit to the precise handling and race-inspired engineering, everything about a Superformance Cobra is designed to deliver the authentic Shelby experience with modern reliability. There is simply no comparison - Superformance is the gold standard in Cobra replicas. This particular MKIII Cobra comes to us from California collectors who took great care of this extraordinary vehicle. Under the locking hood of this exceptional Superformance MKIII sits a Dart block 427 cubic inch V8 - the legendary displacement forever associated with the most fearsome Cobras Carroll Shelby ever built. The 427 V8 is equipped with Blueprint aluminum cylinder heads and fed by a Holley electronic fuel injection system that delivers crisp, reliable throttle response and easy starting in virtually any condition. Exhaust exits the 427 V8 through a set of side pipes that give this hand-built Cobra its unmistakable, spine-tingling roar. Backing the mighty 427 V8 is a Tremec TKO600 5-speed manual transmission that makes this Superformance Cobra MKIII an absolute blast to drive, putting the full force of that legendary V8 directly in the driver's hands with every gear change. This Cobra also benefits from a number of outstanding upgrades that elevate both the performance and the driving experience. Four-wheel Wilwood power disc brakes provide strong, reliable, and confidence-inspiring stopping power befitting a machine of this performance level. Rack and pinion steering delivers precise, communicative feedback through every corner while making low-speed maneuvering at car shows and cruise nights surprisingly effortless. A limited-slip rear differential ensures power is delivered to the pavement with maximum efficiency and control. Riding on a set of 15 inch knock-off wheels wrapped in Cooper Cobra Radial G/T tires, this Superformance MKIII has an authentically period-correct look that perfectly complements its legendary Cobra proportions. The hand-laid factory Superformance fiberglass body is finished in stunning Lightning Blue paint accented by painted Wimbledon White stripes - a striking, classic color combination that captures the spirit of the original 427 Cobra competition cars and turns heads absolutely everywhere this car goes. A single chrome roll bar and exposed side-pipe exhaust complete the period-inspired exterior presentation beautifully. The interior of this 1965 Superformance Cobra MKIII is exactly what one would expect from the gold standard of Cobra builders - top-notch in every respect. The low-back bucket seats are finished in black leather upholstery that has a fantastic high-quality look and feel. The matching leather-wrapped dashboard, three-spoke woodgrain Cobra steering wheel, and Smiths instrumentation maintain the authentic vintage character of the Cobra cockpit while keeping the driver fully informed with a full complement of period-correct gauges. Heating and defrost add a welcome measure of everyday usability and comfort to this purpose-built roadster. This Lightning Blue Superformance MKIII 427 represents an extraordinary opportunity to own the finest Cobra replica in the world in one of the most evocative and classically correct specifications imaginable. Whether you are buying your very first collector car or adding a crown jewel to an established collection, this 1965 Superformance Cobra MKIII would make an absolutely outstanding choice.
