One key reason to choose an SPF or ERA over a CSX car, would the subjective (handling, ride, seating position, etc.) characteristics that can't be resolved on a spreadsheet. We have a local Cobra Club member (Panavia) who owns an SPF and is the process of building a CSX car. It's always interesting to get some input from people who have owned both cars and offer the pros and cons of each.
