i was gonna say "well it's about quality, not quantity..." but I don't know the other manufacturers well enough to post something that might be even slightly perceived as negative. I'm SURE KMP, SPF, CSX all make nice cars.
I realize KMP's are generally handmade, like ERA. They are all nice cars.
But ERA has been in business an awfully long time, and i've just never heard anything negative about them!
not paint issues, not quality issues, not 'build manual' issues, nothing. Maybe I'm still too new to ERA, but overall, sure seem like a top 3 company to me!

now BDR, FFR, i'm sure put out a nice product, as well as a kazillion others manufacturers, but again, i just don't think quantity is a goal with ERA.

I would consider a FFR 'specracer' (they now call them something else, forgot) as I would like a full rollcage, race suspension, etc. if I was REALLY going to do some major track stuff with the car.
My ERA is just too sweet and too old!!! Poor Pepe!!

If a KMP or CSX had 'fallen into my lap' like Gary's ERA did, then I'm sure i'd be just as happy with it. I'm not too picky!!!

next car??? hmmm ERA/FIA, or, ERA 'REPLICA' (that means exact!) copy of CSX 2128....frame, suspension, the whole thing. nah... ain't gonna happen!
might as well save my pennies for the real deal.
