Not a bad looking Ferrari Knock-off

I'd drive one of those if the powerplant could back up the syling. The only thing "Honda" about it would be the drive train, and we all know Honda can build motors and trannies! I like the POS car in the background. Probably one of the guys that builds these

~1800lbs., mid-engine, RWD, Honda reliability, Honda parts/mods availability, and exclusivity of this car make it desirable to me. Having to put it together could be a positive or a negative depending on the type of person you are. Having to deal with the DMV, especially in California, to be able to drive it legally is a definite negative.

If you read the info on the website you'll see it's RWD. They send you everything you need to relocate the engine to the rear. It seems pretty well-done actually. It's not really even a kit car as I see it. They give you a complete chasis and suspension set up to accomodate the Accord engine and transmission. I'm interested to see what kind of numbers this car can produce.

Used/wrecked Accords are very plentiful and inexpensive. Plus Honda engines are very reliable and just about everyone makes performance parts for them. That's probably why they started with an Accord.

That thing looks fast sittin still, and it's pulled off with class. Maybe the accord is what they had available when they started, but it does make sense, and keeps the price down some. I can think of better doner cars as well though. I have to say, I love my all wheel drive, and mid eng RWD cars take some gettin used to on any road corse.
