I think the street versions are great.
I am seriously thinking about the street version for a couple of reasons.
1) They look great
2) The wife might enjoy it more with undercar exhaust (we'll get back to this one)
3) Evan is is right -- the 428 would be correct and I do not see the need to spend big bucks on a 427.
4) Will not be able to afford putting it on the track, so why not make it look the part of a street car.
5) Opens up the possibility of getting a 289 that would be destined for track purposes (wife will understand after being so good to her with no load sidepipes.
)
