Default Factory Five Supercar GTM-200






This is a kit car that was in Turbo & High Tech Performance
The thing I like about this car is that it has a engine from a C5 Corvette and other components from a C5 Corvette.

Check it out: http://www.factoryfive.com/table/ffr...tmrelease.html

What do you think?

I think it is road legal , which is great

The original plan was to offer the first 200 units for sale to FFR customers as a priority. This is still the case. This means that existing Factory Five customers will receive priority on all orders for the first 200 units.

This is what the kit consist of:
Factory Five will supply the tubular steel frame and aluminum chassis panels, the composite body, windows, doors, trim, interior, coil-overs, fasteners and misc parts needed to complete the car.

This is what the car needs:
The parts needed from the C-5 (1997-present) Corvette include the engine, radiator, fuel tanks, front/rear suspension (control arms, spindles and brakes...FFR supplies the coil-overs).

This is the picture that they had in the magazine article, and it got me to look at.


By the way do you think you can stick a Supra engine in this beast

It would be nice, since Supra weight over 3,000 lbs and this car weights 2,150 lbs, that light of a car with a supra engine would be kill pretty much any thing after alot of modifications to the engine were made.
