I really like the ERA as well, probably my first choice if I could find a builder and the wait wasn't so damn long. They offer a lot of features in their cars that are exactly like the originals...moveable pedal box from the drivers seat, etc., and the body is very nice as well. They use a kevlar spider instead of steel, and that would be okay with me as well...but it is a long time to wait.

I agree that the ERA is a fine replica, but if fidelity to the original GT40 design is an important consideration, you won't find any car closer to the original than the SPF. The Superformance has an adjustable pedal assembly - like the original - and both the Mk I and Mk II bodies were molded from original cars.
As to accommodating larger drivers, Dennis Olthoff is about 6'2" and he races his SPF GT40 regularly. There are a number of ways to modify the standard seats to fit larger drivers.
