Only for about a week and it was very out of tune. Not something I want to invest in honestly. I know its forged and can be built for 10000 rpm with a turbo upgrade. That would probably cost me 10k too and be unreliable.
I already spent 10k on the mustang. I will enjoy the 30-40 mpg and power.
I also just plain want a 5 speed with an overdrive 6th gear.
If the front engined car I wanted existed, I would have bought it. It didn't, so I have to build it. Which I honestly think is cooler for my end game anyway. I think these cars are stunning!
I'm tired of always wanting another car also, I want to make something that can't be replaced.
There is no new Model, its weight can't be achieved with new safety laws, I don't have to smog it so the world is my oyster, and its absolutely gorgeous.
Basically, this is something I can keep for life and always be happy with in my own mind. + This may be one of the best last petrol engines built with a 6 speed option. Everything will be 6k pounds and electric in a couple years. This engine is direct injection, and manufactured in spain.
I'll dump whatever $$ I need to to build the car. In the grand scheme of things, its 100% worth it to me.
