I like the comment about how "big" the Ford is. I sat in an SPF GT-40 and couldn't believe how "small" it was. Had troube even gettng in. It was good looking, sounded great, and very nicely done - but claustrophobic.

You are right on, but their is a reason for the tightness. The SPF GT40 is an original spec car. That means four inches shorter and 18 inches shorter in length. That's a lot of space to give up and needless to say it translates into a claustrophobic cabin. The guys that ran those cars back in the sixty's had some cast iron balls. Then again that was all they knew, safety technology pretty much did not exist. To each his own though, the SPF is a nasty race old school race car that is about 60-70k cheaper to build then a Ford GT. Put a Roush motor in it and you have an awesome ride. I have an SPF Cobra with a Roush 427 so I know the product and they are awesome replicas...JMO!!!
