Bill, the green car - for an obvious reason in my case.

Default I'll bite...

I can't for the life of me see why an experienced Cobra afficionado would pose this question other than for the sheer entertainment value of the responses, so, in the spirit of entertainment - here it is.

Two cars presented, no prices, so cost is not a factor and no build process to consider. A small block FFR vs. an ERA with an FE. No offense to FFR - they are the best at what they do - but the choice is ridiculously academic.

Just as with other questions I've posed lately, this one is designed to make each member think before posting. Clearly they are two separate manufacturers, but the main reason for not listing them was to keep the bias (as stated above) of each manufacturer out of the equation. Instead trying to focus on drivetrain packages being offered as a comparison of the package and not the manufacturer. Posted on several different forums, the response (except for those seeking a hidden meaning here on club cobra) are all quite similar in nature.


All except Ned (nedsel on club cobra) on the SAAC forum who made a concerted effort to point out that we were talking about kit cars and not original Cobras ..............

Sounds to me like you're telling me I was absolutely right.
