Factory Five Customer Jim K.’s GTM Featured on GTspirit.com

Posted on September 4, 2013 by Dave Lindsey in What's New

Factory Five customer Jim K. from East Sandwich, MA sent us an e-mail letting us know that his Gen 1 GTM was featured in an article on GTspirit.com, a news site covering the latest and best in the supercar and tuning world.

The article features a photo gallery of Jim’s GTM and gives a quick overview of the specs on the GTMs kit and performance numbers. “This mid-engined V8 supercar is very aerodynamic and very light with excellent weight distribution which gives it race car performance and precision,” wrote GTspirit.com writer Nick Sortor.

The photos were shot by Will Fox Photography near the Cape Cod Canal here in Massachusetts. There’s also a brief video of Jim’s car being checked out by a crowd of people before finally driving off. You can view the video below and click here to read the write-up on GTspirit.com.

Thanks for sharing these great photos and write-up, Jim!
