Oh yeah, sounds good!

The link goes to the Ford Vehicles site map...no mention of a contest? Are you sure the URL is right? I'd like to enter to win the thing if I can.

You'll have to pay taxes on it (and I think they're capital gains taxes, not sure though), and quite possibly the normal destination charges, not to mention tag and title. Personally, I think if they offered the option, I'd take $28k cash, invest it for three years, and buy a Cobra in 2008

Canadian law ... something about they can't just *win* something, there has to be some form of skill test involved. Usually it's like a five question math quiz, something like
A) What's 12 x 4?
B) What's 9 / 3?
etc.
