Having now had the chance to see the SPF Coupe in the "flesh" at a recent UK Car Show, I am in love. In it's own right the car looks amazingly "together".

I can understand why many folks cannot discern the visual lineage between the 427 roadster and the Coupe - you have to be into the history of the legend to really appreciate it.

My only issue here is the UK pricing - full turnkey with Roush 402R stroker Windsor runs to $141,000 and some.

At that price it becomes a pretty direct competitor to the new Ford GT, and, immaterial though this is since I can afford neither, the GT is the car I would rather have in my garage. (actually, a Cobra, a GT, AND a Coupe would be nice!).
