Default Factory Five GTM = Sex on Wheels

idk if anyone has seen or heard of these things...but this kit car designed by Factory Five Racing is my new dream car apparently you can buy the kit and all supporting parts and build it for around $40,000. This thing is incredible...mid rear engine...you can put an LS1 or even throw an LS6 in these things and they do 0-60 in like 3 seconds...just stumbled across this amazing work of art and thought i would share

Definately a cool ride but for FF5 kit cars I'm partial to the Daytona Coupe. The catch 22 is if I was going to spend the amount it takes to get a FF5 kit car + doner car I'd seriously have to debate what else wheels wise that money could go into...

Take it easy

I would seriously consider building one of these for a weekend cruiser/special occasion type car later down the road. It would be cool to roll around in with the wife.

Here are some pics I took at a car show of 2 ls7 GTM's. Talking to both owners it cost them over 100K to comlete the car. They weigh 2200lbs.

yea I have had a couple friends look into seriously building these cars and from talking to the owners and depending on your lever of fabricating ability. They were told in the end it will cost anywhere from 80-140 depending on motor other all the other variables that go into building a kit car.
