Default Factory Five project 818

I hope this isn't old news, but this looks interesting:

Project 818

"Factory Five's next car is an 1,800 lb, 350 HP, mid-engine, Porsche, Corvette, and BMW killer. The car will be introduced at the 2012 SEMA Show and production is scheduled to begin in 2013. The target price is $9,990 for the first of three planned body styles."

they make a great kit cobra, my guess is this will be pretty well thought out.

It would be better if you could fit a Chevy LS or Coyote in it though.

Awesome concept - consider that if this was a Mustang GT, it'd have 700 hp (770 hp if it was a GT500, based on weight differences)! Still, not very streetable. Great alternative to an Ariel Atom, though!

Since when does a early 2000s WRX make 350hp?

You could definitely register it in Montana. I need to look into one of these! I don't see a release date on their website.


Edit: But I do see it in the first post now.
