    I'd love to see a statistical breakdown of the car. Take it to the dyno, get hp and torque. Take it to a track and get 0-60 times. Weigh it, etc. I'm also super curious about how the performance stacks up against a regular M5. It'll be especially interesting because the weight difference, but also weight distribution.

      Lol By the time my car was at the stage of being a bare shell I already had spent 7k on it. It left me wondering, 1) How the fuck did I spend so much and have so little to show for it. 2) How the fuck did my 1k budget manage to turn into a 12k budget.

      How much do you guys think carbon fiber costs? Its actually insanely easy to do if you've done it a few times.
      Its very similar to fiber glass, actually nearly identical, even in cost.
      But even still, we are talking molded plastic. There's probably not more then $20 in plastic. At $4k a kit, they probably turned a profit on the cost set sold and all the rest is just money in the bank.
      A custom polyurethane body kit costs less then $1k new, and its much more expensive material wise and much harder to work with and build.
      I have no idea why anyone would buy rocket bunny, other then bragging rights.

    I'm happy to hear you say speed scares you. People who want to keep rushing into it are usually the problem.
    And if speed in a car on a highway doesn't heighten your senses, it could also lead to high-speed problems.
    A local car dealer had a Targa racer and this look is one of my favorites, also going back to slot-car days.
    That's a really nice colour.
