I’ve been holding back on this one, but I can't resist anymore. There is one big difference between the two cars:

Nearly all of the money spent on the ERA comes from and stays here in the states. Well over half of the money that goes into an SPF goes back to South Africa.

I know there are a lot of things that can't be bought from the US, but when I get a chance, I would rather support our country than somebody else’s country, especially ones that are subsidized by their government.

I do believe in the World Economy, but only when it is conducted on a level playing field. Won't be long before we see cars (not Cobras I hope) coming out of China.

Let the flames begin!!
