Bart, I saw Chuck's SPF and his CAV and would have picked the CAV as well - but that's not a knock on the SPF. The stainless chassis is cool and looks "right" even though it's not "authentic". One other option is the Backdraft BDR GT which is a CAV with some tweaks. Supposedly it's aimed at a little more comfort - dropped footbox, etc. I saw the car below recently and it's a very nice product. The car below had all of the bells and whistles but I *think* Reg Dodd mentioned you can get into one for ~$90k. The car was very nicely finished and was surprisingly spacious inside - lot's more legroom than my FFR roadster. I've had my mind set on getting a 40 for a long time. This car was the first one I've sat in. If you haven't done so I'd suggest making sure you do as the 40 is different than other breeds. But I swear the look is just about worth it.
