What do you guys think of this kit?

Factory Five Racing's GTM Molsanne. Look good to me, altho its still in concept stages and looks may be deciving. Only bad thing about it you have to supply your own c5 corvette running gear.

looks pretty sweet. Although by the time your done messing with that stuff, you could have a nice vette in the garage. But very sweet looking car just the same.

More scrutiny(sp)

After looking at the vehicle more intently:
I do not like the upper bumper line, it is too curved in relation to the lower bumper(skirt) line. Also do not like the hood bulge; I prefer a bulge all the way up the hood(centered) which makes the car appear longer. Tires seem too tall.

I DO like the entire car winshield back!! Very much... a ducktail rear, and the wing is not too tall. Nice proportion there..again this is all my very humble opinion.
I can't do it better, but I am working on it. When it is closer I will ask all to critique good and bad.

awsome car. bound to get you noticed. I don't really like the side view mirrors though, they remind me of the head part of a 1 wood golf club, or something along those lines. I'd switch them out for like....probably Fk design "hyper look" side view mirrors but repaint them to match the car

I've built a Factory Five Cobra replica and have a very high opinion of the company. They're very good about working out all the bugs in their kits. And they do quite a bit of development work considering their small size. But they're pretty big relative to most kit makers. This car seems like a good alternative if you don't want to build a kit that is meant to look like some other existing car. The cost should be quite cheap compared to most pre-built sports cars. Plus the build-up is at least half the fun.
