In these uncertain economic times, kit car building may well become the most sensible way frugal folks get a new car without going into debt and feeding the big car companies. All of the auto makers--American or foreign--are way behind the curve in developing fuel efficient and alternative fuel vehicles of the future, so individual entrepreneurs in the kit car industry like Gulf Coast Motors in Toronto, Ontario will probably be experiencing a land office business in the coming months and years, and deservedly so.
The Canada kit car company has ingeniously married something in large supply --old Honda Civic Hatchbacks--with an inexpensive and easy to build kit that turns these old reliables into a sporty new Vitesse Cabrio with a completely original body style.
