Kit car... 351 Ford engine, 388whp, car weighs about 2400lbs.... just sick. Didn't do a proper shoot, just a few quick photos. Ironically we work together and I'm his direct supervisor... it's one of those cases where the boss makes less money, a lot less money lol. His daily driver is a 2012 C350 Coupe..

I'm on the 4th picture.

So... did you drive it?

No impressions to speak of?

If you didn't get to drive it, threaten him that you'd fire him on the spot.

Tell him girls will find him more attractive if he can find a quadruple webber intake for that.

I did not drive it.. :-( and his performance review is coming up in April, what a silly man ;) I don't think anyone other than himself has ever driven that car.

My impressions? Extremely uncomfortable, no AC, roll bar only for the driver, no roof, etc... I wouldn't drive it 10 miles away from my garage considering that Florida weather is just ridiculous and a sunny day can become a crazy thunderstorm in just minutes. I'd buy a Ford GT for that amount of money to be quite honest, but then again is just a Sunday car. It turns heads like crazy and it's truly a work of art. The engine/exhaust sound is just brutal, as is the power-to-weight ratio.

Not really a fan of replicas but hey a Cobra's a Cobra and it's still beautiful. Only thing i don't like about it is the steering wheel, it really takes away from the whole classic feel
