If there was one car I sold that I would want back, it would be the Contemporary Cobra I had for an thirteen month time period. My advice is to ignore your friend of a friend, instead do your homework and find out which kit best suits your personal wants and needs.

Now, with that said, since you state your have a height concern why not tell us how tall you are, whether you have long legs and big feet, whether you are heavy set or skinny, then we as a group can point you in the right direction as to what your options are.

Either way I wish you the best of luck with your search as I find the hunt to be 25% of the fun.

thanks! the lucky guys that owned several cars and can compare, especially the two I'm considering are rare and the feedback invaluable, I appreciate it.

I'm trying to find a local FFR I can sit in, but I'm 6'2-1/2 and about 270 lbs with about a 34" inseam, if that helps. I figure if I can find my way in and out of a miata with a race seat, heck I can make anything work if I have to
