If you can I would visit all the suppliers in person, see if you can get to a Cobra Club meeting and make a fully informed decision.

I believe we are actually cheaper than Component Cars when you compare the same quantity/level of parts.

We are also launching some new purchasing options to make it easier to get started on the road to owning one of our PACE 427's.

Good luck with it.
Lets not get into a debate over who's kit is more comprehensive, your aluminium chassis is very impressive but I think the last Mk4 I got through from FFR was chassis number 8039.
I take no credit for the Factory Five Racing product and appreciate you are very proud of your aluminium concept but to consider your product superior to the world leader in the market?
Factory Five Racing have been producing their Mk4 Cobra replica for more than 17 years.
Itempy, do your research, check the completeness of all the kits available and you will find we all offer uniquely different products.
If the aluminium chassis is your thing may I suggest also talking to Gary at By Design Motorsports in Qld who also offers the aluminium chassis but unlike the Pace 427 uses production vehicle based components. If your interested in a more authenitic looking replica or perhaps check out DRB or Classic Revival
As for the Pace I guess time will tell how long they take to get built and the big one...the end cost.
All Absolute Unknowns at this stage.
We just had a customer pick up 8039 a Mk4 which went out 100% COMPLETE!! Not a single rivet or nut was missing from the checklist.
Good feeling for the customer when investing their hard earned cash knowing that its all in front of them, they wont be waiting on a single part and all those brand new components are just waiting for them to make it happen.

Ok boys "Let the abuse roll on in".
