Talk you out of it, yup, two words "kit car."

In my opinion as worthless as it might be, is I would always kind of feel like I was living a lie. Guy at work at a very nice Shelby Cobra kit car- more like a replica as he went all out on it, but if someone asked what it was, he would state it was a Cobra- neglecting to mention it wasn't real- all the car guys would mock that part behind his back.

I also think the only good thing about a kit car would be the actual building of it- I really think that would be a fun thing, just wouldn't want it after it was built.
