I thought you gave up? The only thing I'd wish for is an ERA/KMS body over my F5 guts. Other than that, I'm more than content with what I have.

That's a good attitude. jagxjr5012 was just kidding... there's nothing wrong with your FFR. Really there isn't.

Yes, he was serious. In fact, he said he could kick your a$$, but my money's on you.

Scrivy, I don't know what these guys are talking about ?kool aid ??? Read and research as most have said & do your home work & enjoy the process. I'm more of a what kind of wax do I need guy so I was between a SPF and Backdraft.I drove both cars & I felt the BDR rode and handel better. Yeah I know it's 2" longer than the 90" original wheelbase and that's why it rides better and doesn't have the bump steer issues .Not to mention it's built in a state of the art factory and runs on the BMW 3 series platform .Um ,you guys do know these Cobra's are replica's right ?Also a big thing for me was the dealer (Vintage-motorsports) is less than an hour away from my house. There are lots of good Cobra's and it's a buyers market so have fun! By the way Todd your FFR is awesome and Rich with the black ERA it's perfect . Can't wait till the next fall foliage run with you guys .
