They are a lot better looking than an old Ercoupe, and the visibility
with plexiglass doors and turtledeck is awesome...


Whoa, dude -- a Kitfox is better looking than a classic old Ercoupe?

That's just...wrong. * An Ercoupe looks like a cross between a
Constellation, a P-38, and a VW bug. *It's just....cool!

We're gonna make an offer on it in the next couple of days....

I have always thought they look pretty ugly myself. An Ercoupe
doesn't look anywhere near as nice as a P-38 or a Connie.
