Hey guys! Check out this article: http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=17015 Beside legacy and all, how would Ferrari response to this? Can this beat a Fxx? Maybe Ferrari needs a Fxxx? Or they probably don't care? J
Ferrari cant respond to a kit car. Ferrari needs to build a car that is fast but also homologated worldwide , with air bags and emission control passing results etc.. The Ultima is an awesome car but to compare it to an Enzo is ridiculous .
dont care dont need too, ultima is cool, but its a kit (not that theres anything wrong with that) but thats only way its street legal o yeah and its ugly, and in my opinion the enzo is not ugly, just radical
Who cares. I know of bike-engined 10.000-13.000 $ kit cars that can keep up or be faster than 700 hp 911's. I would take a "slower" Challenge Stradale over it any day of the week...
Cause it beats the Enzo, so I want to see Super Ferrari owner's opinion. I guess it doesn't matter cause it's not a Ferrari. I guess I will take a nicer looking car as well. J
Well while on the topic of nice kit cars, have you seen the Factory Five GTM? Total build cost is realistically at about $70, and in my opinion looks better than the ultima. Power to weight ratio is obscene of course. http://www.factoryfive.com/gtmhome.html Austin
I've been drooling over Factory Five's Cobra Since 2000. I'm not as much of a fan of the GTM. I like the overall lines, but it's just something about the cutouts in the body I guess. Between the two, I would go for the Ultima over the GTM. I have a lot of respect for the Ultima and would hope to someday have a chance to build one(3X8 dream is in the way). But it's like my buddy's Dad told him in regards to his Srt-4. Your Srt-4(350hp+ to the wheels with Mopar Stage 3 and other mods) may be faster than my C6, but it's still a neon. Both mentioned cars are great, and have their perks. But, if possible, I'd rather have the Enzo...Well, actually an F40.
You know what. Someone needs to hire the engineer(s) who have been designing and tweaking that utlima's chassis. there is no doubt that the horsepower is great, but that chassis seems like pure bliss compared to current car makers.
