OK I know the answers I get here will be Biased but why should I choose a SLC over the GTR?
I know I am going to build something; I was originally leaning to-wards the GTR just due to its very potent performance capabilities but also its looks.
What do I want is the criteria that should be mentioned. Well first of all I want a car that will fit me. I am am 6'4" and build like a line backer so room is important. I know if I was going to build a GTR I was going to add about 3 inches to the roof line. That would not be a big task for me, I also did not like the fact that the frame was mild steel; I would want Cro-mo so I would likely rebuild that too.
But I am not sure on the SLC's long term viability and in the end I want a take no prisoners performer; when you point at the score board I know the Ultima GTR performs well. Look at all the records; TopGear track times, 0 to 60, 0 to 100, 0 to 100 to 0 times.
I do really like the looks of the SLC but even with that I know I will be making some changes to the body.
I also war with myself when wondering how to build, a part of me really wants to build a bare bones street and track car, and another side of me wants to build in some creature comforts. Who wins is yet to be determined.
Thanks in advance for any constructive input you can offer.
