Scott S: I have a roadster and a GT 40, both by ERA. Neither have recognition problems, although many think the GT 40 is the new Ford GT. That said, I can tell you that the roadster is much more fun to cruise with, particularly on curvy mountain roads. However, an enclosed car such a coupe or GT40 has its advantages, particlarly when travelling any distance on the interstate or when it's hot or cold--wet doesn't count because mine stays in the garage if the weather forecast doesn't look good. I was surprised that after buying the GT40 my wife said, "You're not selling the Cobra!" This was a statement and not a question. The point is, nothing can replace a Cobra.
Note: A top wasn't considered.
