John Speed Cobra was a South African replica-car builder based in Johannesburg. Founded in 1991, the company specialized in Cobra-style sports cars and became known for building AC Cobra recreations with its own chassis design. A distinctive feature of the brand was its use of BMW-based suspension, which gave its cars a layout different from many other Cobra replicas.
Its main product was the John Speed Cobra, sold in kit and completed form. These cars followed the classic open-top Cobra formula, with lightweight bodywork, V8 power, and styling based on the 1960s original.
