I received my detailed quote from ERA for a turnkey slabside about a month ago and $75K is the starting point...no options, no frills 302, 2 stage paint, etc. I found this a little inconsistent with the guidance on their website, but I guess you have to pay-up for quality.

The quote for a custom car like this has a lot of variables, even if "no frills". A big block car was just listed in the ads for what, $45k? With cars still selling in this price range it'd be tough to build new.

But for a lot of folks, it's not about the money. It's about having your Cobra buillt exactly to your specs. Every bolt, every screw, every zip tie -- all, made just the way you want it. And when you take delivery, you know the only butt that's been in that driver's seat was Doug's when he was test driving it for you. If you're looking for a "bargain deal," a Turnkey ERA, built to fit you perfectly, ain't it. |

As it was for I, but people here make mention of the price difference between a Kirk & An ERA. If your that worried about price, it seems 45k with a few "Taste" adjustments makes a lot of sense. If you aren't...well, a chrome car is probably what you're going to buy
