They have some bad ass cars coming, Something has to go. They working on a 67 Nova, and mid 60's vette.

I think the price is very fair for on the camaro. Can't build it for that i'm sure...

Phenomenal car but not practical unless you want a trailer queen. Price is a bit proud IMHO but I am a function over form guy and would never spend the money to have the unnecessary aesthetics since they do nothing for performance.

At that price I don't think it will be leaving their possession for a while.

Who said it had to be a trailer queen? Other then you...

What unnecessary aethetics? Other then nice paint, engine, interior, etc. Yeah, who would want that?

Oh I don't know maybe all of the custom underhood aluminum parts, the mirror treatment, machined lights, etc. They do nothing for performance so they are there for aesthetic appeal. Is it unbelievably nice, yes but you could have far more performance for less and still have nice paint, interior, etc. You can't honestly say that it has more function than form which is why I say it is impractical.
Just my opinion.

All I can say is: awesome !
I had a 71, but in the divorce she kept it and then she got rid of it for like 300.00, just to spite me.

I dunno about not being practical. They ran it at the 2008 Optima Challenge.

In person it is amazing! For that level of build it seems like a pretty good deal to me. As others have said, you definitely couldn't have that car built for that price.

Also, I want to say it was on Dupont Registry last year for around 200K if remember correctly.

I don't know if it's a trailer queen or not, but I've seen them autocross the poop out of it....and I mean competively too. A very nice build....I doubt you could build it for the asking price.

For that kind of money I'd get one those race ready Vipers.

Just my opinion.

Are you familiar with the g-Force Cuda? If not, take everything you said about this car triple the cost and level of custom one off parts then beat on the car twice as hard and you have the g-Force Cuda.

Not knocking you one bit. You have a valid point. I just found your comments funny since I'm well aware of the Cuda and didn't know if you were.

You know, as a builder, I look at the greening car as a great build. The G force Cuda as an extreme build. I dare anybody on here to build the caliber of the greening camaro for 138k. that is most likely there parts and material cost, no labor included. These high end cars have no limit.If you got the money and want a car like that it is at least half price of building one comparable.

Just my opinion.

The paint and interior quality alone on that car would cost 65K+ and if you start adding up all the other parts in the car you still couldn't build it even without all of your so called unnecessary custom parts. This car is not a trailer queen. Does it see time in a trailer ?Absoluetly,but I know for a fact it also sees a lot of road time including going to the local Home Depot,its been driven 500 miles in the rain,and beat on at the autocross tracks. I saw quite a bit of this thing while he was building it and it was built to be driven from the start. Just because a car is beautiful doesn't mean it doesn't get used.
