Hey Guys, as promised here's an update on my Factory Five GTM progress, and a couple more pictures of customer cars/FFR cars. I've got the power windows working, power locks working, body fitted and ready for paint (Silverston Metallic). The dash and pods are fitted and will be installed once the body returns from paint. Additionally, the front spoiler, rear diffuser are installed and fitting well. The door has been re-glassed to follow the body contour perfectly. Below are some pics of FFR cars to keep up my motivation to finish! Would love to hear what others think of the car.

Also, the BMW E28 M5's might take a while longer to reach collector status but there are incredibly few in good condition.

Lotus Esprit S1. Extremely rare and market undervalued. May be difficult to get parts.

Thats nearly 110-120bhp per litre. This is incredibly ambitious, but do-able with the right amount of money. Enough money and its possible. Is it reasonable....hell no. I say 520whp is the reasonable upper limit.

Ford GT drivetrain loss is 7%. I spoke at length with the Ford Engineering team who designed the transaxle, its truly amazing.

James, the CAV is a nightmare to drive. If you're over 5'6" you will barely fit.

Manny Dragone of Dragone Motorcars in Bridgeport Connecticut owned one for 3 or 4 years. He described the experience of driving it as a faster, more refined version of an F40. He had driven a customers Enzo for a full week and called the car 'boring' compared to the EB110. Absolutely phenomenal cars, but largely forgotton. (Dragone can service and federalize the 110).
