michael Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Rather nice looking IMO, should be quite rapid with the twin turbo Lexus V8 option too. http://www.superlitecars.com/index.html http://www.superlitecars.com/img/SL-C_01_large.jpg http://www.superlitecars.com/img/SL-C_02_large.jpg http://www.superlitecars.com/img_coupe/fullsize/rcr_coupe_2_fs.jpg More on a similar theme: http://race-car-replicas.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz6002 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Any prices? That does look like good fun although I imagine it would take ages to get it set up well for track use. Good fun trying though! I wonder how fast it will go with a bit of tweaking? Ultima GTR fast? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I think it says $45K for the rolling shell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz6002 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 *clicks link again* Haha I read that whole page and missed the price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted January 6, 2009 Author Share Posted January 6, 2009 So $43,995 plus one of Cowboy Beebop's twin turbo V8s and a gearbox... not quite Fiesta money sady but probably a relative bargain for the grins it will produce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty damn good actually. Crazy idea: rent house with garage in Florida for 1 month, spend the time building the car, then put it on a boat back to UK once done. Customer has to buy the tyres too I notice... and for a V8TT you'll be needing custom intercooling parts too. Still, probably still sub-£50k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 at least its better looking than an ultima Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
