The car has some really nice details, but for that kind of money I think the engine compartment details should be nicer, like a more period correct looking engine with weber carbs.
It used to be that if you could cut a six figure check you could get ERA to build you exactly what you wanted, exactly to your tastes and get it dropped off at your doorstep, on a reasonable schedule, and Peter would throw in a free ERA Christmas ornament. No more. Apparently now, if an ERA comes on the market that is exactly what you want, you have to hop on it. That car may very well be exactly what somebody wants, or pretty darn close. And whether they pay $75k, $100k, or $125k doesn't matter as much as it used to.
