#689, Twilight Blue Pearl

ERA 427 Cobra #689 with less than 3000 miles since it was completed in June, 2003. This is a gorgeous build, incorporating all the established craftsmanship and design that's synonymous with ERA; it encompasses exquisitely-detailed extras which render this serpent a standout in any venue; it performs like a dream, from the breathtaking under-the-hood response to its road-handling surefootedness.

Here are some of the details of this serpent:

CONCLUDING COMMENTS

This knock-'em-dead gorgeous serpent is a one-owner/builder drivin' machine; every detail has been addressed to meet and exceed the high quality and standards of ERA.

This Cobra has never been raced or driven in inclement weather. I'm parting with this gorgeous objet d'art to commence work on another project... with limited space.
