I have a 514 and while I can't compare (not enough seat time in your other option) I can say that my ride is incredible. I've driven small blocks and all alum BB's and to be honest the weight issue is only relevant based on the type of driving you do. Tracking the car? My view is that anything in the BB cat is a waste on the track. If you are like many of us and you just want to go out and have a blast and break your wheels loose in 1st, 2nd, 3rd (you get my point) than get the biggest nastiest mother you can fit under the hood and hold on! From a resale standpoint these are replicas and I never understand what guys are saying when they talk about resale. Most cobra's seem to hold value within the category they reside. Buy a $25k car and it stays on that curve...buy a $65k+ car and it should stay in that line too. I love just going out and kicking it up...no concern for keeping it too pretty...have fun!
