Still consider them among the best looking cars ever made. I also considered a GT but lack of storage, not for me mind you, was a real downside for us. Though a nicely done Daytona isn't in the low price category, it was less than the GT's I looked at and we can take a few more hops to Maui, for example, on the difference. In fact, for the foreseeable future, the CSX Daytona is quite a bit more rare, as well. I'm still jealous of your GT ownership regardless of what factors drove our decision...metal Daytona, yes, cool, but, you have one awesome car in the GT Tony. I think they're bad in the nicest of ways.

Happy motoring'

I don't know who got it. It would have to be among the rarest of the CSX9000/HiTech built cars though. I believe that for the CSX9000 cars the alloy cars only come from HiTech and are completely hand built. Now that Kirkham has their own coupe that could change.

When I was looking my Heritage GT was almost exactly the same price as alloy Coupe, that's what made it so interest.

Regarding the awesome car, I'll state that I have an average Heritage car made to look excellent due to the photography (which I did )


Happy motoring to you too. Give us a progress report after 1000 miles. It will take some time to get it sorted out so don't get frustrated. You had a roadster so you know the process.

Enjoy it. And please drive it!
