Actually, you can buy it. I believe GMG has several Cup Cars for sale, or they can build you one. However, probably not as fun as doing it yourself. Can't wait to see the finished car.

It's a race car guys so does it really matter if it's a true GT2 or not? Ambitious project with some exotic parts as well. Thanks for posting the pictures.
