Just saw this article. The look is somewhat reminiscent of some of the 818 cars.

WOW only 300,000 euro's a real bargin "not"..All the more reason to go FF5 818 if they can keep the price to $15,000 cost....Quite a difference..

looks similar to a K1 Attack. My favorite kit car but too bad they don't make it any more. Can't remember why the company went out of business but would be awesome to have another company *cough* FFR *cough* pick up on something sharp like this

Zodiac, I don't think you read the link that Mechie3 put into his post. The Tushek IS a reincarnation of the old K1 Attack, with changed made by the guy that acquired the corpse of K1.
It is hard to imagine how the Tushek can compete. Half a mil USD or thereabouts. Man. Twice as good as a Ferrari? Hmmm.

When it was sold in kit form, under the name "K1 Attack" it sold for just under $20,000USD.
As I recall, it used a similar donor concept with the drive line and suspension from an Accord.

I think it's the free life time oil change and big screen TV in the little waiting room with coffee and donuts that makes this concept so special!!!
WEK.

Man I wish the 818 looked like the K1 attack. I might mod the chassis just for this purpose.
Anyway, anytime someone posts a car with similiar specs/concept to the 818 it is ALWAYS more expensive. This is why I am excited for this car. I still hope it comes to look just as awesome.

Evidently, this company forgot how important it is to have customers! I've heard of a niche market but this takes it way over the top. If the 818 can engender any of the HOF factor that this car brings out in some of the posters, it will be very successful. But for this car company, I see the same fate as the original component version. WEK.

When the K1 Attack started selling kits they were $13,000.00 US after a short period of time they went to 16 grand.
Then they stopped selling kit and were building them in a factory in southern Europe with Ford engine and trans offered.
Cannot remember the price of them but it was over 100k.
