Doesn't this car have a UK/EU dealer?

No UK dealer dink, but pretty sure you're right about it being sold somewhere in the EU. Though presumably not the Netherlands...

Thats a fabulous looking car !!

No mention of price though (or shouldn't I ask ??!!)

Thanks Guys.. appreciate the comments!

Kiwi, the lights are Hella. Not sure what they cost, as they came with the kit, but suspect you would be able to find them on their web site www.hella.com or through a google search.

I can try and see if I have a box with a number on it if you like.

David

Thanks for the reply and the link. I have search the Hella site for quite some time and can't find hem. To be honest their site is quite difficult to navigate around. If you are able to provide any more info on it I would greatly appreciate it. Part #'s would be awesome but anything would help. This is what it is going in...

Hi Kiwi Carguy, what is the car you are building?

Cost to build the car was right around $50K US and about 1500ish hours labor, including tearing down the C5 I used for parts. This also included a fair amount of custom work on the car.

I know a number of FFR cobras have been brought into EU, but not sure if any of the GTM's have shipped to that area of the world. The kit has only been available for about 1.5 years, and as of yet, has not been advertised.

Cheers!

It looks like at least one has made it to the UK and passed SVA:

News @ the front...there is now even a Dutch Dealer or builder? of this monster cars 3 engine choices and with Dutch prices incl BTW and BPM that's plus 42% at least but still the most expensive with the Z06 505hp engine cost all in 96.000,-euro so that's competitive me thinks!

LS 1 incl BTW EN BPM EURO 74.990
LS6 incl BTW EN BPM EURO 77.450
LS7 INCL BTW EN BPM EURO 96.950

Ow and here a movie from FFR GTM remember the car you see go very fast has just the 405hp engine from the old Z06 so the 505hp LS& goes much faster

David,

Congratulations, this car looks great, and having a Corvette donor is perfect for such a sportscar.

All,

Its been a while since posting, but just completed a couple videos for your viewing pleasure.

First is a short video of me autocrossing the GTM.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwLBXZgeTs0

The second, is of track footage of the two factory GTMs at Pheonix International Raceway. The black car has a stock G50-01 with a stock LS6, the red car has a stock LS7, with a GT2 transaxle.

Would like to see Stig drive that thing on Top Gear. Could shame some of the establishment?

GTM vs Ultima vs SL-C would be fun

[foryorent]

That would be fun to watch, all 3 with stock LS7's!!
