. . . on this thing

Part of me thinks its crazy badass but the other half thinks they missed the mark with the back end and its a kit so it will never be worth anything.

It uses a covette C5 driveline which would be cheap as hell through the auction and I betcha would haul some *** with a 427 ls1 . Looks like there may be room for a roots style blower too.

These some vids of it running on the site.

 

is that whole body carbon fiber? man that is an awesome prject. with the engine in the back like that wont it wheelie like crazy?

I think its baddass as well... Altho I don't like that lip on the back end at all...

They say it'll cost less then 20k as well!

one sure could build a monster track car for somewhat cheap!!

 

I betcha it would cost about 40k - 50k cdn to complete because you need to supply the vette carcus which will be around 7 - 10k and have the body work completed .

Yup its full tube chassis and the body is full carbon fiber. It only weighs 2200 lbs with all the fliuds in. The thing would go like crazy but i dunno about how it would be to drive ( rattles and noise and crap ) .

It dont think it would flip or anything as its made for track racing to stomp on supercars. . . . I guess its the kit car part that bothers me most.

 

Since when is having you exaust above your tail lights good enginering?

 

It's ugly......

 

I agree. Looks better without the body on it.

 

Praticality and speed rarely mix

 

I like the style.. . . mostly. The stance is what I love about it though, look at how low it is in this video as it drives by the mustang. Its barely as tall as the hood. This thing would *** rape everything on the street with a blown 427.

I wonder if you could drive it around without the back end on lol

 

I don't care for it.
Not striking.

 

I think the car looks pretty sweet, except for the back lip. It looks over done, I don’t know maybe with a c5 style chopped off rear it would look better?? From the side at the front of the car it looks kind of like an Aston Martin Vanquish. I would think that it would be a fairly close in performance to the new C6 ZO6 when it comes out. And maybe have better handling then is at a fraction of the cost.

 

the tail end is ugly but its got potential. many may think its a maclaren drivign down the highway.

 

Who cares if it's a kit car, would you say no to a Cobra kit car too? It looks like nothing else on the road, great chassis and power and that exotic look does resemble a Vanquish or McLaren. Looks like great bang for the buck and you get that awesome unique look too.

 

Definetly not - I'd just turn around and sell it then buy what I prefer.
