Well just wanted to say Hi and introduce my self, my wife and I are looking at building a GTM for our 10th wedding Anniversary present to each other. We were going to do a cruise or a vacation but really how much enjoyment do you get out of those once they are gone. We have already requested the brochure from FF, and I've ordered the online manual and read thru it. We were looking at building an Exocar but due to the fact that we both ride motorcycles and would more then likely like to take those when they are nice we decided we needed something enclosed, which lead me to either the SLC or the GTM.
Seeing as the car will mainly be street purposed maybe a few track days here and there if I can find one out here in the boonies! The GTM looks won my wife over more so then the SLC. This will be our first car build together so we'll take it slow and steady to make sure everything is done right and to our standards. This won't be the first build together as we just last year stripped my bike (05 Vrod) to the ground and rebuilt it. So I'm pretty decently mechanically inclined (Vrod's engine was stroked and bored, cam'ed, etc...) and she's really good with keeping the spending in check and and eye for depth and evenness which I hear on the GTM will be a good thing with the body panels, as well as picking out the color and such since I'm colorblind lol!
So we'll be lurking around the forums trying to gather as much knowledge and info as we can over the next year before we order our car.
