As newbie, I've been spending a lot of time researching the different Cobra kits so that I can make a decision that's right for me.
This afternoon I had chance to take a look at ERA's website
http://www.erareplicas.com/ and I highly recommend it (even if you're not in the market for an ERA).
I reallly like the page where they provide photographs comparing the various replica manufacturers
http://www.erareplicas.com/427/profiles/index.htm . Well worth spending some time on the ERA site.
