BDR verses SPF

[Rwillia4]

...I guess BDR drivers are having too much fun driving their cars to reply...

I bought a BDR because I wanted it to handle. With more than 600hp I have never had a driveline problem and it handles VERY well. IRS was the way to go for me, realize I don't do a lot of straight line 1/4 mile runs. Suspension upgrades are available thru proven BMW testing that will make it a menace to anyone racing against it.

Fit/Finish/Paint/size/...- BDR continues to refine their product so anyone saying they owned a BDR prior to BDR #500 really doesn't have a good opinion as to how the new cars have changed. Mine is a year old and I wish I had some of the upgrades on the new cars. The footwell is small so it can fit a T-56 tranny without any modifications. With a size 12 foot and military boots on I haven't had any problems with pedals. The steering wheel was changed on mine to a non-wood wheel.

I can't tell you anything about the SPF because I haven't driven one.

Yeah, they may not look perfect like the "real" cars but look at those hand built cars, they weren't even symmetrical (ask the Kirkhams). Everything is not perfect on either SPF or BDR, but other than a few people that really need to notice the negative, they both resemble the car I fell in love with 30 years ago. I suggest driving them both and figure out what type of driving you want to accomplish, your choice will be obvious.



JWheaton- the side profiles are great, I never noticed all the small differences.
