    For Sale.....

    I am selling my Ultima Can Am.... absolutely, the best of everything, and every option available.

    This is an Ultima factory built car, not home made. It was built at the Ultima factory, and shipped to the US as a complete rolling chassis. Engine is custom aluminium, dry sump, with all the goodies. Gearbox is the 6 speed Porsche. All was mated together professionally.

    726HP and 2k lbs = 0-60 in 2.6 seconds. Mind boggling speed.

    All receipts, books, build CD, tools, etc...
    Over $190k was spent on this build:
    Rolling Chassis = $96k, plus crating, shipping, registration, title, etc...
    Engine = $38k, plus crating, shipping, etc...
    Gearbox = $20k, plus crating, shipping, etc...
    Engine and gearbox install, with all hoses, fittings, and extra build needs = $20k
    Extras (windscreens-full and 1/2, side windows-full and 1/2, custom Ultima cover, front splitter, extra set of tires, convertible top, etc...) = $15k+

    Flawless condition. Less than 1,000 miles on this beautiful machine.

    Asking $95k, or best reasonable offer.

    At this price, you will not find a car as visceral, fast, unique, or creates such a crowd of people as this car does. Selling for less than 1/2 the cost of the build. You will not find an Ultima like this anywhere for the price. Serious inquiries only, please. If you have any questions, or have an interest in the car, please send me a PM.

    :)

    The wing is an Ultima option. It is carbon-fiber. Yes, bolted to the body - this was done during the original Ultima build at the factory, and has reinforced body supports inside.

    I would assume, much like a Noble or Rossion, that because it was a chassis shipped here separately with a motor installed after the fact, that it qualifies as an ASP and as such is legal without having to meet bumper, emissions, etc requirements. Also why it has traditional brake lights and turn signals.

    Wow!!! Very nice example. I recall seeing one of your pics on the Ultima website a few years ago when the can-am came out. I was really tempted then. Really tempted now!

    Yes, street legal!! It is titled and registered in Florida, and insured with State Farm. Getting all that done initially when the car was new was a substantial project, but it is all done now. For anyone contemplating one of these, this is a huge value-add this car has.... Easy to transfer title to new owner like any other car.

    And, yes, entire rolling chassis made at Ultima. Engine, gearbox, and install was done once the chassis got here. Exempts the car from regulations doing it this way for crash test, airbag, etc... Yes, the pricing for each piece is listed in the initial post. All reciepts are here. This car has a custom, aluminum block and heads, dry sump engine that is an extreme race engine with the best of all internals, etc. Add to that, a Porsche 6-speed gearbox.... plus, custom clutch, pressure plate, stainless hoses with all AN fittings.... nothing was skimped on at all......that all adds up and was not cheap!!

    I've read about these. They are truly the ultimate - at the ultimate price tag too. But this is a steal. GLWS. Wish I had the room and the balls to challenge my wife on this...

    I had one years ago. The only car I had ever owned where I didn't care waht rolled up next to me at the light. I'd destroy them. Even bikes.
    My wife said. That's the biggest POS you've ever owned. I said. It's the fastest POS I've ever owned.

    I never thought they were the most beautiful cars around but holy crap what a machine. That is amazing...AMAZING performance for the money. Folks spend much more than that to not go nearly as fast!!

    As someone pointed out to me, at my asking price, it is less than just the cost of the rolling chassis alone ...... and, getting everything else for free....

    This is street legal, and you must see it in person to appreciate how clean this is, how much attention to detail and the quality of every part used in the build..... it is really one heck of a deal. I am ready to sell, so please send me a PM if you are interested.....
