No seriously, this thing is a CP all day, but it is completely awesome.

I concur with the first comment under the article: 355 all day for this price.

I don't see it as CP. If this is CP than so is every original GT40, homologated RS200, and AC Cobra.
It may not be as widely known or popular, but most cars that are worth tons of money years after they were produced usually aren't.

You can find them and get them imported for cheaper than this (like low to mid 40s all day), thats why I CP this.

It's a NP for collectors' purposes—just not as a fun driver.

It's certainly cool, but you could get a new Mustang Boss 302 Leguna Seca for $5k cheaper and not worry about registration, emissions, etc.

Yeah aren't these fairly common in Europe? I mean not super common but not to the point where you're spending anywhere close to this much to import one yourself.

Its like finding a 93 Mustang Cobra. Sure it's relatively rare, but you can find a handful for sale nation wide at any point in time.

I wouldn't call it a Cp, but the price is reminiscent of a Cp, So I'm neutral.

Yeah its not like an RS200 where there's only like 200 of them in existence (probably less now with a few probably being wrecked). The Escort is a cool car but it is not worth 50k even in the states.

about the same price on conversion but that one has A LOT more done to it!

It's been up for sale for the better part of a year. I reckon it'd go for much less if someone made the right offer.

Eh, it's a collector's car at that point. an example with high-ish mileage will be significantly cheaper.

But how long would it take to import from the UK?
I mean I would definitely save 10k+ myself and just have one imported, but for those that "time is money" it might be an instantaneous satisfaction to buy one that is already here.
Now if you said that there were a few already imported for 40k, then definite CP all the way on this.
