Ken, very impressive, I agree, however 90% of those components are not theirs, they get their stuff from different suppliers and do not fabricate absolutely anything. Turbos, I/Cs, headers, coolers, exhaust systems, heck even ECUs. are all bought from other builders and just bolted on, TTP to name one. That is not a real tuner. Compare them to RUF, Andial, Protomotive or so many others.
How come they never participate in any professional races, can they be compared to PSI Motorsports, RS Tuning, Manthey Racing and the likes? They do charge as much and more when the customer does not know.

Gemballa is crooked? WTF! You look at the pictures of their shop and .... WTF? .... How can this be? The world is not what I thought it was.
I never liked their body parts because they looked too much like an overdone Camaro .
But this is $ucking insane. Don't they have a guy selling Gemballa parts in LA? Is he straight?
Engine fires? They must have monkeys work on these cars.
$300K? That would have bought a real Ruf and then some.

300K is very possibel for a price on a car on foreign soil.. for example in the philippines if you import a car you have to pay close to 200% in taxes for eth car that you are importing..
they sell honda civics with almost a base interior close to 18K U.S.
countries ln asia, people pay a huge amount of money for their cars, they pay a huge amount of $$$ for an almost base model car...
