Review written on 8/1920.
The new Cobra looks to put Philadelphia Motors on the map against rivals in the Sports segment. This new Sports has some intriguing features, but is it enough to push the Cobra to the top of your buying list above everyone else? Or is it such a lemon that it should be forgotten much like the Erytheia? Let's take a look at the details in this month's Vehicle Review!
The first stop for the Philadelphia Motors Cobra was the track. I won't lie. I was scared. This Sports is built for performance. Philadelphia Motors cut no corners when designing this vehicle for speed. The vomit stains on the carpet prove that the 141 hp @ 2979RPMs 6029 cc V6 engine roars this rocket to a top speed of 103 mph in an impressive 12.303s 0 to 60 mph. If that wasn't enough with the 199 lb-ft of torque will melt the tires off the rims. When hooked to a trailer, this baby will haul an amazing 5886 lbs! I'm guilty wanting to steal this one for my self. The Philadelphia Motors Cobra handles smoothly and can really turn a corner for a Sports. While it is certainly not a race car, it can handle any real world situation you throw at it.
While certainly does not have the best features or materials. The Philadelphia Motors Cobra does provide the bare necessities required in a vehicle of this type. No more and no less. As well as it should. If you wanted to spend that extra bit you would of bought the better vehicle. Was Philadelphia Motors wise in this respect? Maybe, but we do think they should of offered at least a little more bang for the buck so to speak.
16 cu-ft puts the Philadelphia Motors Cobra roughly in line with other vehicles in its class. We would consider this to be enough space for everyday use of a vehicle of this type. We certainly wouldn't use it if you're looking to haul a bunch of junk around.
The workmanship put into the Philadelphia Motors Cobra is unparalleled in this market. From its hand finished panelling to ultrahigh quality materials the Cobra is truly a work of art that should last a life time. It seems Philadelphia Motors has perfected the perfect.
Dog is said to be man's best friend. But that saying isn't true anymore. I propose the Philadelphia Motors Cobra is truly man's best friend. Not once in our long term testing did it need repair. This vehicle was built to last a life time. It is truly a wonder of the world. Centuries from now people will still probably be driving this thing, that's how rock solid it is.
Out on civilian streets you'll never be thought of as a eco-maniac while driving your Philadelphia Motors Cobra. With its sub-par 14.8 mpg the Cobra will hit your wallet hard. Don't worry, the gas station clerk is a nice guy!
The extra effort from Philadelphia Motors to make the Cobra feel safer pays off. The reinforced frame makes the vehicle much more impact resistant. Don't go driving into walls your self, just take our word for it.
I was happy with the time I spent in the Philadelphia Motors Cobra. This car is truly magnificent. I think future generations will look back at this vehicle and think, "I wish I owned one of these." It is absolutely one of the best Sports you can buy. An instant classic that others in the segment will be compared to. I wish I could spend more time with the Cobra but it is time for them to take it away. I believe I might go buy one myself.
