For the $ the ERA is hard to beat. The frame is very important and I can give you some observations about the ERA: The frame is boxed and beautifully welded. It is very hard steel--can't use normal drill bits for long, it smokes em. NO cowl shake, flex, and if you try to jack up one corner you will soon find that 3 wheels are coming off the ground. I'm thrilled except the price stung the wife, but I just tell her its an illiquid investment that could be liquidated if we felt like it. (Don't feel like it, may never) Went to Shelby's factory last summer, came away knowing I had a better car.
