Mate isn't this car a bit too fast maybe? no?!

I mean I took my 2.5 on the track a few times already, it's fun and scary but nothing that bloody fast in any ways. I'm glad I never took a ride with you on a circuit brotha, I'd crap my pants I think

(nice video btw.... wakes up the adrenaline big time)

Brad,

Thanks for the bump.

The 3.6L is an awesome motor and the exhaust that was developed for the car makes it sound great.

If you know anyone in the market please direct them to my link. I have a new house (old house) that we are remodeling and needles to say, I'm motivated...

Nine8Six,

I don't think the car is too fast. I do know that the MoTeC ecu could be retuned to make more HP and TQ so it could always go faster.

If anyone has questions about the car, I have it in my home garage now and can take pictures of any specific part/piece if needed.

NEW Video

Video of cockpit review, start up, and walk around. Goal is to show folks, who can't see the car in person, a little more about my car.



Let me know what you think.

I'd like to ask publicly: what keeps people from buying this car?

Seriously?

Motec
AirJacks
Moton's

Those 3 things right there SCREAM quality/pro build.

Am I missing something? Has it been wrecked 100 times??

Can someone step up and be honest with me?

Is it strictly price based? Too expensive?

I see 60k in the car if i just throw a pencil on paper!
