IMO they're both Blue Chip choices.
Find a nice one, and you can't go wrong either way.

Looked at the ERA you linked to. It's a stunner. Only issue is price. I think you can have a new ERA built for thAt number. Only issue is the wait.
Call Peter Portante at ERA. I believe he now owns my old ERA #515 too. Geat guy. They may even have a car available.

There is a night and day difference between SPF and factory built ERA. Not everyone may care about those differences though. You have to see the two cars with your own two eyes and then make the decision yourself.

Patrick, substitute "definite" for "night and day" an I would totally agree with you. |

OK, there is definitely a night and day difference between SPF and ERA.  |

Night and day are by definition polar opposites. Within the genre of Cobra replicas, ERA and Superformance hardly represent the polar opposites of available choices. |

No, to a blind man there is no difference at all between night and day. And to that same man, there would be little difference between an SPF and ERA. |

And there would definitely be no difference after that blind man wadded up either a SPF or ERA!
