Overall opinion of this build

amazing will cause people to brake
run of the mill replica with an interesting rear that can be a show car with the right paint job
pretty nifty and has a lot of potential
abort mission while I still can
 people will laugh and feel embarrassed for me

I agree. Im just saying as far as what you get. The GTM has a complete chassis, complete body, complete interior, plus all the extra stuff. I love his kit but that price is just to much for what you get IMO.
I will be watching the build for sure though.

Still beats building an accurate murcie out of a g28/mercy2 I guarantee
or his mercy 1 especially

my other favorite is the miami gt which might be a better deal

Wow never seen that before. I think I know what my next build would be...

I love the Vaydor kit. But 12,000.00 for just the exterior fiberglass is very steep. I know you also get a couple of other things and the roll cage but for a few thousand more you can get a factory five GTM. What is the interior panels going to cost?

Hey Satak44. I noticed you have started a build diary on MM on the new Vaydor kit. So did you sell this Mercy 1 kit and donor? Or are you doing both? That Vaydor is awesome. Good luck with which ever ine you go with.

I was going to get some of those seats also but after looking at them I figured out that they wouldnt fit my Diablo. The little piece behind the headrest that sticks out wouldnt let the seats recline enough....

Those seats are imported by a company called tunedbymatrix.com . They are wholesale but they will sell retail. Talk to Vinny there. This company also has the aftermarket Celica projector lights that the 458 thread is talking about over on MM. Let me suggest something else to you. Scat now has an interior parts line called Procar. Their seat is similar in looks and price but it is one inch narrower and one inch lower than Matrix. I have found that one inch to make a big difference (insert joke here) with these cars.

Crap! Didn't see that coming
Maybe if they get enough inquiries they will change their mind?

If a part is made of wood maybe he meant to take molds from it?
