damn ultima gtr! i hate the front of that car. its a kit car i was thinking about getting. but i much rather the DDR gt8 which is the same price. both kit cars using the same engine and trans setup.

yeah, i didn't like the ultima much either tbh once i saw the whole thing.. same deal, don't like the front end on it..
the one you like looks more like a saleen, which i've always liked.. :D

thats what i thought, its like a saleen mixed with a mclaren f1.

also just found the factory five gtm kit car that dont look too bad either. still would probably go with the gt8 though

they have them sans the wing as well..



i have to admit, i'm usually not a fan of winged street cars as they tend to look pretty dumb imvho, lol, but idk, i don't really mind the one on the slc too much...

and fuck yeah, factory five does some really nice stuff.. they do a cobra i do believe that is pretty bad ass imo..

ya they do cobras and ford GTs. high end shit. i wouldnt get their kit cars cause they are too damn expensive. you can get that DDR gt8 kit for $18,000 the factory five car probably costs twice that.

hell yeah, i'm sure they cost more like quadruple that.. i'm not exactly sure, but i think the dude from gearz said something about the slc costing about the same as a new vette for the kit, so what's that, $60k or so?
don't quote me on that part though, but i remember thinking it was crazy pricey when he said it.. that's no engine, no transaxle, etc, etc, etc, i think it maybe a complete roller though for that price..

lol ya thats about right and way way too expensive. your better off buying the gt8 or the gtr. they sell everything online for the gtr on their site but you gotta get some of the stuff yourself for the gt8. so its about how much work you want to put into the project. both of those cost 18k for the kit. probably around 30k finished. you can buy the gt8 already put together by their shop if you want but god knows how expensive that would cost. gonna call and ask one of these days though ;)
