If I had it to do all over again I could easily buy a BDR. My original choice was an ERA, but the extra $15,000, the used FE BB, the typical short gears and the 18 month wait for a car (may be less now) convinced me to get the SPF. 10 years later it's still running and driving well.

In 1999 there was an SPF dealer in my area (Snakepit on LI) but no BDR dealer. Snakepit had lots of rollers ready to go, and engines from 302s to Windsors to 460s. The test drive was like drugs. Life is short, why wait 18 months? The ERA does come with the extra large trunk, which is where many ERA owners store their egos.
