Not Ranked
I'd have to agree with Evan on his analysis of the comparison. There's more to it than a round tube frame to be considered an 'accurate replica'. My FIRST thought, when considering this 'whats better issue' was how about an older Hi Tech? BUT, the problem there is not all Hi Tech's are an accurate interpretation when it comes to specs. For instance, many had a solid axle 9" rear end instead of IRS. That would be a deal killer for me.
Which then raises the question: Are ALL CCX cars 'accurate' to original specs? Did SOME come with a solid axle? Small block? Even some ERA's don't have the 'correct' engine, again, that would be a deal killer for me. Depending on price and other factors I could live with a 'modern' power plant, I guess, uh, I don't know, maybe not. An SPF with a 427 "FE" would be WAY more appealing to me than one with a 460 or a small block, for instance.
