Well, it's official...I just placed my order. Planning on a May delivery. It's going to be a long few months!
I spec'd a Complete Kit Mk4 with the Coyote, a TKO-600, 3-Link, and passenger roll bar. I'm planning a modern interpretation of the original. Probably will wind up with some chrome FR-500 replica wheels, something different with respect to interior, too.
I'm sure by the middle of May, I will be flooding you guys with questions!

Congrats!! I remember how psyched I was when I ordered. The guys at work were stoked too, nobody got anything done that afternoon. They all stood around my desk while I placed the call.

A man after my own heart. Would be nice to see what you come up with. My coupe is a modern interpretation of a coupe. My interior is quite different also. Just finished the upper dash mold last night. Looking forward to it. Might be years, instead of months though. ;)

Oh, yeah...the wait to delivery is the months part...the build will be quite some time. Probably 2 years for the build plus paint time.
Why so long on delivery?
Congrats!!! The call is just the first step of the excitement. Its all good from there!!

Congrats on your purchase. When I made the plunge, my pulse was up for week or so. Great feeling fulfilling a dream. Once you get the kit, the feelings continue and the adventure begins. Enjoy

In short, it just made it easier on the finances. I also wanted a bit of time to do a few things around the house before my time is consumed out in the garage:)

Not unwise. I know the urge to work on the car will surely tug harder at you than anything the house needs, and I'm a lifetime home improvement DIYer. Congrats on your order, the arrival will just be a mid-year Christmas to you.

It is my favorite of all the FFR line-up, although it helps to own at least one of each! Huge thanks for the support. The day will come soon enough!

The coyote is a great choice! I started mine for the very first time today - it was a fantastic feeling - you will love it!
