True - also true of a plain Cuda conv that's retrofitted with the stuff 
optioned on a 426 Hemi Cuda.  IMHO of course.  I just don't see the 
difference other than the provanance (sp?).  And no, it's not the same as 
going to the F factory and having a custom 360 built.  Or going to Colt and 
having a custom engraved .45 SAA created - over buying a commerative Colt 
.45.  In both cases the value will go up as years pass - the retrofitted 
Cuda will remain stable and provide years of fun.

Personally, I wouldn't drive a $1.5M Cuda - or Cobra or 275 GTB if they're 
that high.

But it's all academic - since I don;t have the $'s for either ;-)
