If you are trying to save money, buying a car that's already been built is clearly the way to go, as opposed to building it yourself or having ERA build it to your specifications. The benefit of the latter is that you get the car
exactly the way you want, not the way somebody else wanted it. But you will pay a premium for that luxury. On the other hand, the longer you drag out the process lends itself to an appearance that you are not paying as much as you really are. Kind of like the old days when you paid Ma Bell a small monthly fee for your telephone, but you paid it forever.
But be cautious on the price of these cars. They are more expensive than you think, they always cost more than the good faith estimate somebody gives you and when you see the good stuff next to the alternative, you will always want the good stuff. And the good stuff always costs more.
