SPF cars are nearly identical to originals. CAVs are not. Hence the disparity in value and resale. |

Which part am I dreaming about? SPFs at Goodwood or having much better resale?

A car made in 2016 is simply not the same car that was built 50 years ago. Different materials, different company, different tools. SPF use to claim 90% parts "interchangeability", but were called on that BS. And now they claim 70% parts "interchangeability." I will agree that the CAV's appearance isn't close and they don't have 'continuation" status, so the SPF's have far superior resale value, but then CAV's aren't $110,000-$115,000 rollers either. |

The last sale on GT40s.com that I saw was asking $135,000 for an SPF GT40. The originals sell for millions. Replica versus original. Hillbank can ask $160,000 or whatever, and someone may pay it eventually, but resale will remain roughly in the neighborhood of $135,000-$150,000 (+/-), depending on build. |

Superformance isn't Ford. And Superformance pays Safir, who holds the trademark, a fee for each sale. |

I did find this Shelby but it looks like it will take at least $220k to get one.

There's still time to sell your CAV and get an SPF.
Rodknocker can still unload that Kirkum and get one too. |
Evan?

Forget him. He has left the building...

So Bob Bondurant has an ERA GT40 and he seems extremely happy in his car vs a SPF so maybe you should add that to your list...... Of course if you got the $$$ for a SPF then go for it. I'm sure Lance would love to sell you one...

There are those with SPF GT40s and then the other 99% who hate on those with SPF GT40s :LOL:
Happy 4th of July |
I thought ERA stopped making the GT40.
