New "supercar" built in Michigan?
I saw a piece on our local station about these guys tonight. It's certainly unique but is it something many will want?

Corvette with a bad body kit.
Not crazy about it. See a lot of conflicting styles crammed into one car. Italian ass, Ricer nose, Detroit profile. It's a bit of a mess.

I think this looks better, but who knows what drives better. They both share an awkward side window/windshield profile.

Will they pay name royalties to Ford?

Not a body kit, the engine in in the middle/rear.
The Mach7 "Falcon" - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums - Camaro5.com  I like all the views except the most important one, the front 3/4 view.

I love Detroit. Even though I'm an Ann Arbor boy, I consider it my home town.
The car pictured looks like a good starting point for a finished design. But thats never going to happen. Because no one gives a rats ass. If a Russian wants something exotic, it isn't going to be anything made in Detroit. |

It looks like a slightly different take on the Factory Five Racing GTM. I think there are other "car companies" which are using FFR GTM kits to build and sell "exotic" cars.

I like it! I guess it's that kid in me that likes the absolute outraegeousness. It reminds me of the zonda in it's over the top stylings. The rear grill is especially Zonda-ish. I think the rear is fantastic, shots 26 28 and 30 are my favorite very 348/355ish
The ultima looks kind of strange, the fenders and too tall and the windshield looks like a big bubble just looks a little goofy. An American supercar with Italian stylings. Good luck to them I hope they do well
