  • The K1 Attack kit car offered by B-Racing is an affordable, good-looking supercar alternative capable of out-racing helicopters and Lamborghinis on the track. With an exotic fiberglass exterior, protruding coilover suspension, and a variety of available configurations, the Attack can become the perfect track weapon or daily driver. Is this the BEST kit car currently on the market?

    I build one myself almost 15 yrs ago. In that time it was some puzzle building it, but I guess that should be better right now. A fully assembled build in good condition will cost you around $ 35-50k (depends on options). It will take 200-500 building hours, which depends on your own technical knowledge. So the preassembled car isn't so overpriced in my opinion.

  • @dendroxden440
    @dendroxden440 4 года назад +3

    The kit on it's own may be pretty cheap, but the price of getting everything else would probably add up pretty quickly. It would also take a long time (and I'd assume more money) to put the thing together. Then at the end of all of that... it's still a kit car. This is just my opinion, but I think that you'd be better off just buying an actual car

    • @limitlesspassiveincome
      @limitlesspassiveincome 2 года назад +6

      True but most people that do build kits, its the fact that you have the pride of "Built it Myself", the uniqueness of the car (only 350 in the world) and the ability to customize it the way you want to. I love this kit because its not a replica of anything...so totally unique..that's me.

    Why is there such a large fluctuation in price differences between engine options? The K20c1 option has gone up 3k since this video. I don't understand how different motor mounts justify the higher prices between options? It would be one thing if that specific motor came with the kit, but it doesn't. I think it's overpriced with no way of quantifying if what your getting is actually worth 7k more?
