Ultima advice

[Cordiner-gy6d4]

Hi all

I am after a bit of Ultima buying / owning advice. Many thanks for anyone who takes time to reply.

I am very tempted by an Ultima RS with LT5. I think they look amazing - but I can find very little information really on Ultima ownership or comparison.

What I am looking to achieve from the RS is: i) 5-6 track days per annum; ii) odd euro trip; and iii) an experience every time I jump in it. What matters to me is performance and handling. I want something which handles like a big go kart, with significant stability at speed.

Alternative cars on my possible list would be:

Radical RXC (my concern .... just too low and turning circle is horrendous)
991 GT3 RS (superbly capable ... but dare I say it a little dull)
720s / 600 LT (v quick, nice place to sit ... but maintenance costs are high and dare I say it a bit soft)
Exige 430 Cup (nice / engaging, but a slower alternative to GT3)

I currently have a tuned 620R which I would plan to keep.

All thoughts welcome.

Thanks!!

Thanks Racingroj

Very helpful to have the direct comparison. Did you find the Radical was manageable with speed humps / angle changes (with a lifer I presume)?
