I think we all agree about that ! even if some (very few) kit cars can equal the MKIV quality, it is obvious ... one little story: when I picked up AK1113 at LE HAVRE port facilities, the guy who delivered the car lead me to it, and said : "we put it there, in a quiet place, because of the quality of the car... we see a lot of replicas coming from the USA, but this car is really different!"

apart from the dashboard (and you're right, Shep, stickgear and housing!), my other wondering is wether to keep the interior in its original color (ie tan), or change it to black, which is more common, but has my favour on a red Cobra ! but it also involve changing seats and doors uphosltery, and as already said, I want to keep everything reversible, so it means buying new black seats (easy) and finding or making from scratch door panels (harder)...
I must admit that the combo red/tan is very "american" (no offense), and each time I see a red/black MKIV, I love it... but sometimes, I look at my car and want to change nothing [
)]!
an example of a tan straight dashboard (from a Superformance - but for illustration only
!):
what do you think of it (colour essentially) ?
