Default What do you think about Factory Five's new kit?
Uses the WRX as the donor. 227hp (stock) 1800lbs. 300hp with very minor mods. Should be a rocket even in stock form. Completed car cost $15K or less? The kit will be $9,999. Everyone knows this is a local company?

Thoughts on the rendering below?

The exhaust will be chambered to emulate a flat crank. This version is the race/track car. The hard top will be the street version and that will be available first followed by the race model posted above. If I build one it will be the open top/Race track model.

What do you think of the appearance? Some love it, others.... not so much. What is your thoughts on it's looks?

I see in your sig you had a WRX. Fill me in....what will that engine/trans combo feel like in an 1800lbs car? Never even driven one, so your insight would be outstanding.
