The Mk3 was Factory Five’s first component kit car and since 1995 they have sold over 6,000 examples. Their concept is simple – a well-engineered kit that can be build by the average hobbyist. They even simplified the donor car concept by designing the car around a late model donor Ford Mustang. This was a revolutionary concept in 1995 and the car was an instant hit and has become the best selling component car of all time. Today the Mk3 comes in two kit versions: the base model that still uses the Mustang as a donor car and costs about $14,000 or the advanced kit that does not require a donor car and has everything the builder needs less running gear, wheels and paint. It cost about $20,000. Builders of either car get a high performance automobile that compares favorably with super cars that cost many times as much.

I have always liked the Factory Five cars. The whole concept of buying one kit and buying one donor car will save a lot of time and frustration. The cars are well engineered and the company has great support. Any one interested in a kit car should seriously consider this company.

Verdict

Pro Affordability and Quality
Con Options Are Expensive
Verdict Great way to build a replica kit car.
