Reply to "Vintage vs. JPS"

An obvious question begs to be asked: for the price of a tricked-out, high-end replica with a performance engine what features would you get as standard OEM equipment with a new BMW 500 series, Lexus (or name your favorite brand) for the same money. Certainly OEM autos have features and engineering, dealership networks, 100,000 mile tune-up, etc., that no replica manufacturer can touch, however, the OEM cars though remarkable autos may not touch our souls the way the classic Speedster design does. It is a good thing there are basically two price points with replica Speedsters, if there was only one some group of buyers may not be able to afford to purchase a new one, others may find the Vw chassis and non roll up windows lacking.
