My new Car. Next year.
 

http://www.factoryfive.com/table/ffr.../2614acrop.jpg

Kits been ordered and it is being built.

Puttin a 350HP in it, 17" Vintage Rims.

Its gonna be about 6 months to a year though:(

wtf is it? aston martin?

Its a shelby replica

Nice ride

That will be a lot of fun to drive in that warm so-cal sun!

I am kinda flippin out about it.

My family bought a few of them but they goto be made.
I am getting one of them, cept mine is last to be built LOL!

It is amazing that they are being built out near Tahoe, gonna go up this month and take pic's of the boxes in the ware house.

Ahhh hell yeah :thumbsup :thumbsup

wait, it's not a kit car is it?

Most of them are kits.
Just depends what is put under them but essentially it will run like a Shelby/Mustang.

It's a show car.

What is a 350HP?

Wow. Nice looking ride. :)

:thumbsup

that is cool. congrats

427 is the proper powerplant for those :)

They are built for show though, ya can build em for about 25-30K but the resale on them is incredible.

Yeah but parts for a 350 are easier to get. :thumbsup

mine would be this one

your gonna put a small block chevy in it? Good lord

is that one of those factory 5 kits (I think thats what it's called - uses 5.0 mustang donor parts)?

Yeah the kit is from Factory 5 in San Diego:)

The buikld under neath it will essentially be a Mustang.
Thats the way ya supposed to do it.

The 427 would be nice, but really 350 will be more than enough. I wont even drive it that much. Again its gonna be a show car, not race.

Sweet. From what I've heard about those kits you shouldn't be dissapointed.

Congratulations!

Atleast use a 302 or 351, dont bastardize it like they all do with small block chevys, either way good luck.

OH but I am gonna go with a Silver/Pearlescent gloss Body and Black Stripe.

Not like the picture above though that is a nice job.

Cobra replica or original is a definate welcomed addition to any garage, Big Congrats on the order :thumbsup

Any of you guys seen this hot ride? the Bentley Configurator?
I've been seeing alot of these in the city lately, a definate "Hot ride"
http://www.bentleyconfigurator.com/I...p?lang=&model=
This ride is a definate Pimp Mobile :pimp

Ha, lay away eh?

How much is the whole thing costing you ? It'll be nice ride to own.

Thats the killer thing about it.

The kit only cost like 12K then depending on how ya piece it together underneath maybe another 10K-15. I am going with the Mustang underneath, so it will still kick some ass.

I been debating getting a car for a long while, I have a pretty pimp Handa Del Sol right now, it is pretty tricked out, but a Cobra MK III is hardcore. It will beat most mustangs at the line since it will have a light Chasi.

I will roll with it once in a while in LA but not often.

This one I will hardly ever drive, its gonna be for shows and I will probably only keep it for a year. Use it for photos, media and some other production in Adult and Mainstream stuff then turn around and sell it for 50-60k maybe more.


So in the long run the whole thing is an investment.

They are all over ebay starting at about 30K :2 cents:

Congrats buddy !!1 that car will kick ass when its done

Depends all on how it is done.
I will let ya know what it resales for OK?

Yeah the replica's can get pretty cheap make no mistake thats very true, however doing things the right way can yield a decent pay back. Who knows though, I have not even talked to the guys that are building them, but I do know the kits are chillin in the warehouse and more parts are comming.
I will know more after I see what the plans are, I was just told this today.
No matter how ya look at it I am pretty fucken stoked and I also know I will be able to make a few bucks with it in productions.

Original Cobra's easily go over 100K and I seen some in the 200K range and even those are not complete and most started off a base replica and eventually worked to a Rebuild.

Investments in original bodies, parts, block chase etc...
Depends on alot of things.

congrats, nice ride dude!

thats awsome... congrats buddy :thumbsup

Those are popular with the retirees here in Florida.

It is a near fight with a fricken Enzo, smokes a Viper easily.

So who is building yours and how much extra is that?

congrats! Send us picture when you get it

Again the wait is the fucked up thing and I am gonna be going down on weekends here and there to help get these things together.

It is looking like 4-5 months per car.
This is gonna be some painful shit to wait for.

nice car!! :thumbsup

make sure you check the weather before taking it for a ride though! :upsidedow
