You can see mine in San Diego. There are also several others here that may respond. There is a local parade July 4th where there will be some.

Email me to see mine.

Joe,

There is at least one in PHX. and another in Show Low. There usually are a couple at Anthem Motors in Phoenix. They used to be a Backdraft dealer.

Default Backdraft

You wont go wrong with a Backdraft, I have first hand experience of Tony and the boys at the Factory in SA and their willingness to help out. and they build a quality car. At shows the BDR draws way more attention than most other cars, due to the fit and finish as well as attention to detail.
Handling is superior to any others I have driven, comfort and quality takes second place to none that I have driven or seen so far.
My recommendation..............BUY IT.........you wont regret it.

Anthem Motors in Phoenix had both Backdraft and Superformance when I was there last year. I sat in both cars, there are differences but I chose Backdraft mostly because of price. I went to Boynton Beach and drove their demo car and was sold. Both are good cars. Backdraft makes improvements with almost every car shipped. The car at Anthem was older and nothing like mine, and cars shipped after mine are even better.

Joe,

Come to San Diego, there are quite a few of us with Backdrafts. The first Saturday of every month is also a good time to see them as there is a morning "cruise" with the Corvette Club. Everyone assembles at a Starbuck's in Mission Valley (near IKEA). So, you could talk to several owners there.

If you are considering coming to San Diego over the 4th of July holiday, the parade in Scripps Ranch, as previously mentioned, should have several Backdrafts in it as well. Plus you could compare it to other brands at that time.

I am sure anyone of us would be happy to show you our cars.

If you are going to fly, you might as well come and see me. I'll pick you up and let you drive my demo. We are going to be at the London Cobra show and you should see this first hand. It is a good time to have by all.

Bill
