I have owned 3.

Likes
1) resale value is very good.
2) solid car as compared to other "replicas" not as solid when compared to dailey modern cars

Dislikes
1) Paint chips very easy on the front.
2) All replicas have a paint issue's one place or another on the car. My SPF's were no different
3) Brakes are acceptable but nothing compared to a modern vehicle
4) All replicas are fragile if you want to keep in "like new" condition. I was loosely classify SPF as splash proof at best.
5) although smith instrumentation is period correct for the most part they are junk gauges.


Make sure your drive installation is done by a competent person who will warrant their work in close proximity to you house. It takes a year to sort, if you are not mechanically inclined I suggest a viper or vette as you will tire of chasing gremlins on a new car.
