What is your time frame for purchase? I guess if you are looking at having an FFR built you are in the 6 month + window? If that is the case and you can wait a bit longer there should be some new offerings in the coupe market that will make things very interesting by then.

That aside, the SPF coupe is considerably nicer than the FFR no matter who finishes it. And I bet the 80k is not with IRS and anywhere near the completeness of the SPF inside?

I have not tried getting in and out of the SPF coupe, but I can tell you at 6' I found the FFR coupe very uncomfortable to get in and out of, that may be a bigger concern for you?

Based on you description of what you want to do with it the Brock sounds like a clear winner of current offerings.

FFR's is on a 95" wheelbase, a bit mo bigger than the REAL thing.

I think 80Gs for a top of the line '65 Coupe, even with a 427 Roush is a bit much. For that matter so is 100K for a Brock Coupe, but if I really just had to have a Coupe as a road car I'd spring the extra $$s for the SPF.

are you kidding? Is BDR coming out with a coupe? I'd like to know because I'm looking for replacement for BDR031, if I can ever sell it.
