Well, I just got back from a long weekend away and on the way home, we traveled through Cinicnnatti, and of course, had to stop at Dynamic Motorsports and dream a little! I took some pictures of the new Coupe, but pictures really don't do this car justice. THAT is one AWSOME looking car. VERY well built as well.
I'll post the pic's as soon as I get them back.

Evan: I wanted to touch on something you said earlier about the new CSX roller coming with quite a bit as "standard" equipment vs. the ERA's. I recieved a price sheet and booklet in the mail from Shelby American Inc. the other day (so I can start comparing the 3 brands to see what I would get for my hard earned dollar!). I think the CSX and ERA cars are going to battle it out as far as price and options go. Both are about the same. I don't think these new Shelby rollers are going to effect SPF as much as ERA, just because there is still quite a bit of a price difference (for most people) between the SPF / CSX car........once you add all the "extra's" onto the CSX car to equal what SPF includes on their car as "standard equipment". I was easily into the mid 40's on the Shelby roller vs. the 36.9K of the SPF (and that was starting with the 39.9K "introductory price" that is supposed to go to 42.5K in a couple days!). At the new price, the CSX cars will be upper 40's vs. upper 30's on the SPF. Some people don't blink at 10K, but for others, I think it could be the deciding factor in what you end up with. If you're in the market for a roller, check everything out carefully, because it sure isn't the 3K difference it "looks" like on paper (36.9 vs. 39.9).
The CSX DOES look like it's built with some good stuff, however. I was also told they are going to make some improvements on the cars over the proto-type, and I'm sure they will improve upon the car in the coming years (just like ERA and SPF have done to their cars). I still need to see some on the road before I can make any decisions.
Speaking of upgrades. While at Dynamic today I was told that the new cars are now coming with the larger Olthoff swaybar on the rear to make the car ride and handle even better than it already did. ..............I still can't get over that Coupe, though. I can't wait to get the pic's back!
