Hot Rod Magazine’s Brandan Gilloly writes a nice article about our newest Factory Five, the Gen 3 Type 65 Coupe in the August 2017 issue of Hot Rod Magazine on newsstands now.

“…a lower center of gravity, a flat floor, improved aerodynamics, easier exhaust routing, and room for a larger fuel cell. All that and it’s still light, with a road-ready car tipping in at only 2,350 lbs.!”

The car tested was our prototype chassis. Production began in January of this year, and we have already shipped about 25 of the new design. A few months ago, we introduced the race version chassis, and our street demo car #001 will be making the show and event circuits this summer and headlining our SEMA 2017 display.

Really like #15. Saw it at the open house and while I may be bias, the color is gorgeous.

Don’t say goodbye to the GTM just yet—Factory Five told us it will live on as long as there’s demand for it. The Type 65 isn’t taking its place, either. This chassis that now underpins the Gen 3 Type 65 will be used in its next flagship supercar that hasn’t yet been unveiled.

Hmmm. Whatcha got going on up there in MA? :)

Was hoping to see it at the open house, to no avail
