the least expansive super car?
4 Attachment(s)
So i found this car the GTM by factory five on the internet recently and it sounds like an amazing deal. You can have everything done for around 35k-45k. For the price the performance specs are amazing IMO. I also think its not exactly the best looking car but defiantly something i wouldn't mind having.

Almost all kit cars are cheaper than any factory super cars.
Though really most kit cars just use the LSx engine series which helps cut down the cost a good bit. |
That Chassis looks like it would collapse if you breathed on it. Not something I want to do over 100mph in.
C6 Z06 frame/chassis for comparison... http://www.innotechcorvettes.com/wp-...-side-view.jpg |
Yeah, cause everyone knows steel tubes are weak....:ugh2:

The design is similar to cars like the Aerial Atom, just they made body panels for it.

Isn't there a Corvette or GM or LS forum you could post in? ugh. It wouldnt be so bad if you just commented "That Chassis looks like it would collapse if you breathed on it. Not something I want to do over 100mph in." but when you throw in a pic of a Z06 chassis (which probably wouldnt fair any better at 100mph) it just wreaks of impotence. you avg 5 post a day and you dont own a 370. Go away already. |
I looked at this about two years ago. The new Gen 2 has lots of improvements since I last looked.
Over all very affordable |
kit cars always are a good time, and a good deal for a fun car.
|
Maybe I'll do one when I retire.

Here are a few things I found on the second gen model

Steel tubing is nice, but I would rather a more substantial frame in addition. If steel tubing alone were so great then a lot of high end cars are being built wrong. The reason they use steel tubing is one of cost, not design superiority. |
