Humor me if you will with your productive input into my dilemma:

I have waited for three years while we 'get settled' in Oz, cars here are pretty expensive and if i want another Cerbera, which i do, i'll be paying $50k for a standard 1997 4.2 which i feel as a little harsh. We live in Queensland and outside Brisbane there isn't really much in the way of excitement as far as cars are concerned, i can have a Ute, or a Ford/Holden sedan....(I do actually own a Holden sedan....only offset by the other car being a Land Rover)

So, i looked outside the box and found that i could potentially have something erring on the mental side for a similar price....If i built it myself. Cue a quick trip to a local(ish) kit car manufacturer and being very impressed i am now faced with dilemma of which one i should take on, i have 'made my mind up' several times now, only to change it again, so i open it up to you:

Only three choices, their components and workmanship seem second to none, not to mention the fantastic enthusiasm and knowledge of the owner. My only real issue is that its very hot here through the summer biggrin which puts me off the Skeleton and makes me think aircon and Pace GT. Engine will be 500+hp crate motor in whichever i choose.

Which and why?

Pace GT in Gulf colours. I'd prefer a Pace 427 for the open top motoring - but like you say, heat might be an issue.

That's the way i'm heading but how can i be so dismissive of the Ariel Atom type madness?!

We are always left wanting more power after owning most vehicles for a given time, this could be the chance to spec something that will hold that off at least for a while wink Just seems more achievable with the Skeleton?

Skeleton. There's a clue right there. hehe That would be hilarious and petrifying in equal measure I would think.
