    CvK is a true inspiration! I’m so thankful I was able to meet him in California a year ago and have a quick chat with him about my go kart build. Not too many car companies where the CEO is so in tune with the design and engineering that he can tell you exactly why a certain bolt or material is used in a particular area of the car. Thank you Christian for showing others it is possible if you work hard!

    I found this very inspirational. I've always wanted to start a car company from when I was young. I'd love to design cars from the ground up and see how they perform. I want to make a car company that is full on electrification, affordable for everyone, and even fun to drive. I want to be sure that everyone has an car that is environmentally friendly, safe, and even fun to drive! That is my dream as of now. I'd also love to take my dream even further with a ultra luxury electric car brand as well.

      My name is Michael and I also have this Vision in my mind! I already started slow. My Idea is to create a new car brand for the future ( of course electric! ) Its a very interesting area I think!
      Maybe, if you would like we can work together and create the ultimate car brand in the future.
      Best regards, Michael

    Tune cheap cars or use engines of other cars(stock or tuned)
    Once you earnd enough money start making your own engines

    Everyone’s on here in the comments wanting to have their own company but don’t forget Christian went through a lot of heartache and it took years to even come up with a prototype. Not to mention his dad was a business man and so was Christian and he took another path while this dream was on the back burner, so with that said I’m not saying don’t go for your dream but just keep those things in mind when you come across the roadblocks. If you want it bad enough, you’ll have it. Just look at Christian, he did whatever it took and had what it takes to be at his level, he’s a great example of how passion and determination can get you anywhere, look at Enzo and ferrucio, those guys had relatively humble beginnings, and see where they are today and the legacy they left behind

There is more to go around for all of us than being obsessed and reliant on few manufacturers.
