Supercar looking kit cars
Discussion
from my searches over time you'll struggle. You tend to either get cars designed by people who think a Reliant Rialto is the height of aesthetics or full on Ultima style lets-squeeze-into-a-sardine-tin-with-a-bubble-on-top.
K1 was a breath of fresh air but I wouldn't have classed it in "supercar" styling, and there are the minor problems with the supply etc of them being non existant.

You might have to do a little digging, but I thought someone in the UK or possibly the Netherlands is prepping a street legal version of this: http://www.sakercars.com.au/main.htm
I don't know if you can really call them "supercar-looking", but the GTM Libra and Spyder look like they belong on the road a lot more than almost everything else IMO.

But supermini!? Gah! Both have 2 seats, the Libra is a coupe, and the Spyder is an effin ragtop! What next, a striking resemblance to a tractor? Well, I suppose lots of them are yellow... seansverige said:

There should have been a " But supermini!? Gah! Both have 2 seats, the Libra is a coupe, and the Spyder is an effin ragtop! What next, a striking resemblance to a tractor? Well, I suppose lots of them are yellow... 
" at the end there. That said though, that rear end... Massey Ferguson... Edited by Davi on Wednesday 13th May 09:17
What about the Factory Five GTM (an American kit that's entirely unconnected to the UK firm of the same name).
Factory Five Racing UK don't have a demo yet, but they can supply kits.

There was a car around 2003 i saw at Detling, looked like an AMG Mercedes DTM Touring Car. All i remember is it used Totota Celica doors, and looked hard-as-nails and pretty much like it had just pulled off the Nurburgring. And thats a complement coming from someone who HATES Mercedes cars as a rule. Got knows who made it, does anyone remember it??
