Replicas:

Don't have several million dollars lying around to buy an original? Despite Carroll's insistence they never be produced, several manufactures are producing replicas.

 

This gorgeous coupe was manufactured by Superformance and participated in the "One Lap of America"

An interesting note is that Bob Olthoff and his son Dennis head Superformance's R&D Dept. Bob was one of the drivers of the very successful Willment Cobra Coupe described on the "Unofficial" Coupe page.

 

Some other manufacturers producing Coupe replicas include Upstate Super Replicars and Factory Five Racing to name a few. These are typically in the $40,000+ price-range for a "turn-key" car.

 

 

Left: Beware of ads claiming an original for sale, this car was advertised as one for a price of $270,000. It's a beautiful car but not one of the original six. I'm not sure if he ever found a buyer and at what price (anybody have some info?).

  

Don't like fiberglass, have plenty of time, and incredible talent? Well why not build your own! This amazing car was the inspiration for Project G.T. 140. It's a hand built replica currently under construction. If you want to see what the originals look like underneath that aluminum skin your must check out this site! "Coupe Chuck" is building this car to be virtually indistinguishable from the originals. I have never seen such craftsmanship before.
