Hello!

My build mate has send me this:

This car starts at 169.000 euros. :O....

I can not imagine who might buy this pseudo-ultima....

My first opinion of this Ultima wannabe is unattractive. The roof is still an Ultima but the front and rear body is too squarish. It does not look good at all. On top of that, it's super pricey.

How much is based on an Ultima? The engine bay picture shows a chassis that looks identical from the bits I can see... And that back end

[odyssey2200]

One pic shows a motor with 5 intakes stacks while another is a V8?

I was liking is right up to the bit where I saw the rear.

Did the designer die, go home early one night and forget to come bback and finish the job.

TBH the interior is 'orrible.

So near and yet so far

that is really a joke, they are having pics of moulds being made, but still if you look at the interior it looks very ultima like. Looks like a mix of factory parts and home made. No STALK at 170.000 EURO starting price.........
Probably they created one factory car and have this as the demonstrator with their "improvements".
The steering wheel ? you want something else at that price tag, not the most regular one that you usually find in a pimped rabbit.
Better buy a factory car and save half of the money and if you want a nice interior, there is plenty of companies that do nothing else.
I personally am past that I like the alloy !

Looks like a cheap copy of Jon Olssons.

yep it does not look quite right and its expensive but.....

its different and someone is trying to be inventive, lots of people try things some work and some dont.

[srreck]

It looks to me as an unfinished job. The front is from first Stealth series and the back...eeee,...mmmmm some kind of .....shoes box? I don't like..I don't

[Mjpmark]

they should feel very very silly with this virtually standard Ultima.

I know ill change the front bumper on our Range rover and the rear bumper call it an MJP and sell it for 3x the cost any takers?

What a C**K

[738 driver]

Looks a bit 'Ikea' to me !

[UltimaCH]

A disaster and a bad dream. Looks like something built in a scrap yard. Certainly never for me and wouldn't take it even if offered free. And the price....

[V8Dom]

oh dear....

the builder of that rear end needs

what a

dom

A picture says a thousand words

While on the subject what do you think of this....



Construtive opinions please....

[UltimaCH]

An SS special perhaps?

[GTRCLIVE]

His handy work my idea for a P4/5 rear...

[UltimaCH]

Looks interesting at this stage and I think I see a rear diffuser integrated on the underside

[GTRCLIVE]

Yes intergrated and will go upto engine adaptor plate....

Hi Clive, from a functional point of view – i was looking at some other cars (photos of a Mac F1), and from some angles it looks like the rear diffuser finishes at a height that would put it level with the wheel centre line. I have no idea where it starts or the rake of it assuming it’s a simple wedge shape. Just wondering how it’s all going to work. Maybe have a look at the Lotus Elise Gt1 (the series 1 version with the V8) looks similar in its construction.

Kind regards Ryan
