Ryan Gates 311RS EVO X

After listening to this and seeing what he offers, I don't think this is a route that I would go. But, that is my opinion. What about you guys?

I think it's ****ing awesome and if I could go back in time I would buy this instead of my 2014 GSR.

Props to this guy, that thing is a custom ordered beast with an in tact warranty.

I think it's great. Turn key car that's perfect for the track and street.

That wooden parking brake handle is a bit out of place.

I hate the seats and parking brake handle. I just don't know what to say about all of that but love the car otherwise.

I'd want the 'leave the interior alone do the rest of the car' option.

The seat patterns was an added option for the owner. They'll normally just come in black with the logo in the headrest.

353 horsepower and almost 359 pound-feet of torque with it’s price tag of $49,000.

My considerations of this is that yes there are only 11 of them being sold and yes it has 3 years of development behind it, but still not my cuppa.

I think it's way to much if you ask me. I can get a brand new X for around 33k and drop 10k in it and eat that thing alive. Not worth it if you ask me.

Wheels, suspension, cage probably comprise 10k of the price.

Knowing what I know now, I'd def. pull the trigger on a 311 RS. I think all 11 are sold though.

Having worked with- and being authorized with Ryan to service these cars- and having had the #001 here-

its a pretty awesome package- we have known ryan since we got into the evo X work- and was running our BBX parts/radiators/etc--- he has been a pleasure to deal with-

The nicest thing about this car- is the attention to detail- from the shift knob/handbrake/seat inserts/311RS badging/graphics-

Ryan has built a great package- and we are always happy to be apart of it- and have our turbos be utilized-

Correct. Ryan confirmed that in this post.

Neat package but $49K is a lot of money

It's a beautiful car but I would not buy it. It does make me want an X though

Also, that DSLR suctioned to the hood in that video scared me.
