WE HAVE GOT TO BUILD THAT THING!!!!!! >:D
Can you imagine how well that would sell. I have the shop and the knowledge, I could put that in production easily. I would use a turbo H22 with a similar frame with a small windshield. Otherwise it would be the same. All I need is investors and we could start a small sports car company like Panoze.

You may think I am kiding, or crazy(I am a little crazy), but I am serious. If perople can sell motorcycles that start at $30,000 and go up to $250,000 we could sell a open wheel sports car that can out run a motorcycle for good money.


Who is with me on this? Email me at customcoach@comcast.net

cool car but evrything is a ------- option when you buy it. Like windows for example, and the windows you get dont roll they are stationary. The optional top kinda sucks too. Good rich mans toy though.

$250 and a dream. Its not much but its a start. I am dead serious people. What is there in the automotive world right now that really stirs your blood? What would you go out and buy?
Not much.
Even the "EXOTICS" are all lame now. Ferrari and Jag are owned by Ford. Lamborghini is owned by Chrysler. VW ownes Rolls Royce, Bently and everything else. Even Porsche is geting lame. The world needs a car to get excited about and this thing kicks ass.
I was thinking about it all day. Everything to build this thing is right at our fingertips. A Honda front clip gives you the motor, trans ECU, wiring harnes and rear suspension. Wheels and tires, brakes, seats, guages, fuel cell and steering wheel are all off the shelf parts. The frame and front suspension are the only trick parts on the car. The front end can be had from a number of sorces from the race and street rod world and the frame is not a big deal. I could get a prototype up and running in a year or less for under $10,000. I have experience in custom sports car building with a huge background with Jags, BMW and Porsch. I also have two mechanical engineer friends that would help. So why not?

I was also thinking about it all day. The part I loved most was its from a company with 7 employees. I would just LOVE to wake up and have designing things like that as my job. ----, I wouldnt even need to be payed. Designing it would be its own payment. Im a Mech and Civil engineer with a biomed minor. Im just waiting till I get the start to go into business for myself. Cars and design is what I love. My job now is what pays the bills.

To show you how much of a design nerd I am. I just ordered "design and Simulation of 4-Stroke Combustion Engines" -Blair- This was before I saw that vid..It was my off work entertainment.
