Review written on 6/1929.

Some say we're never kind enough to Philadelphia Motors. Face it, we don't pull our punches when it comes to vehicle reviews. Just look at what we call the Arrogante. That doesn't mean we don't sing praises when someone makes a good Sports like the everyone else. So where does the Cobra stand in the Sports segment? After spending a few days with the Cobra. We have made our judgment.


I was giddy when I heard we were testing Philadelphia Motors Cobra. On the track this thing is fast. How fast? Notice there are no pictures on this page? That fast! This is one of the fastest Sports I've ever been in. As impressive as that sounds, the 162 hp @ 3292RPMs 5970 cc V6 engine is even more impressive. Peddle to the metal, this baby will do 133 mph easily. And in a straight line we hit a 8.730s 0 to 60 mph! If this doesn't drop your jaw, the 207 lb-ft of torque will spin the earth in the opposite direction, the baby can tow 6419 lbs which is amazing! When we took the Philadelphia Motors Cobra out to the we were amazed at its ability to stick to the track. There was no need to let off the gas even on the tightest of corners. For a Sports the Cobra is extremely impressive. Mommy can I keep it? Please?!


The Philadelphia Motors Cobra is the definition of basic transportation. The seats feel like they're chiseled out of concrete. The dash isn't much better. And features? What features?

When it comes time to get into the Philadelphia Motors Cobra most people will find it to be a little tight. While the 14 cu-ft of cargo and passenger space does limit us, it is almost average for it's class. Overtime we got used to it. But we still think the folks at Philadelphia Motors should squeeze in just a little more space inside.

Serious effort goes into every Philadelphia Motors Cobra produced. The build quality of these vehicles is amazing! We could not find a single flaw in its construction while we were testing it. Everything fits properly, nothing is misaligned or misplaced. All of us here at GCM commend Philadelphia Motors in their efforts when it comes to the production of this vehicle.


If there was one vehicle I believe would be able to hit 1,000,000 miles easily it would be the Philadelphia Motors Cobra. This vehicle was designed for dependability in mind.

The Philadelphia Motors Cobra's fuel economy is impressive, but not in a good way. The Cobra's 14.6 mpg is one of the worst in class. This might not be troublesome when you look at the numbers, but it will be when you actually have to pay for it.

The Philadelphia Motors Cobra is the kind of vehicle a mortician recommends and an insurance man says to never buy. In this respect we have to agree with the insurance man for once. We can't lose anymore subscribers! Avoid Cobra at all costs!


When it comes to Sports there should be only one vehicle to think of. Have you thought of it? Did you read this article? It's the Philadelphia Motors Cobra the best Sports I have ever driven! And the best one you've ever read about!
