It's not a Ferrari or lambo, I get why ppl turn mr2s into ferraris
But seriously frs/brz seems pretty afford cars and it seems like that's what Toyota/Subaru were going for

But other than that I have seen every car on display in DTP just by cruising about in Richmond, thank you very much for collecting them together and get someone to sing a cover for "fuck you".
OH FUCK YOU OH OH OOOOH~

I guess everyone needs a hobby. I don't see much of a kit more than a one off.
I mean this guy made a
Pagini 4HP kit car. So hobby is important.
Also I as long as the fabricator doesn't' cut into the unibody (which by the pictures he doesn't seem to have) it should be fine on the road.
I suspect Timpo is a image searching bot so the admins can mess with us.

Context is a lovely thing. The picture shows the cars are RHD, so chances are it is some SE Asian country that have rather brutal vehicle taxes.. Some increases as the car gets older (eg Singapore).
Not everyone lives in North America where cars cost is a small part of one's annual income.
Besides as I say, people needs a hobby.

Can't you get a real one down in the low teens now? I have a hard time believing anyone could get a clean 240SX shell, and then buy this kit, and then buy the drivetrain, and then do all the fab work to make it work, for a significantly lower enough price to justify it.
Why would you swap in that boxer engine anyways? You can bolt in and plug in an SR20 that makes more power for a lot less money.
