Forgive me if this is a repost...but have you guys seen the K1 Attack from Mid-Atlantic Concepts? I saw a little blurb about this last year in KitCar magazine, but the pictures were crummy. Now this ride is on the cover of a major import enthusiast magazine. I want one! Complete turnkey kit is slightly less than $40k

 

what is it???

I mean did they build the entire car from scratch?
what are the specs on it?

the car looks flashy as hell I haven't seen it yet.

 

aren't the attack roadsters kit cars for like 92-96 accords?

 

Length159.0 inchesWidth73.22 inchesWidth/Mirrors77.9 inchesHeight41.5 inchesWheel Base96.0 inchesWeight1870 lbs (est.) The K-1 Attack is a mid-engine high performance roadster. Attack's tubular chassis was built with extra attention to torsional rigidity and safety by experts with 30 years of experiences building race cars. It was born from international co-operation of Slovak, Czech, Hungarian brand name engineers and supported by German competition teams and formula racers.

The frame has been tested by American computer analyses specialists, and the results surpass even NASCAR regulations!

The K-1 Attack incorporates a three piece honey-comb technology floorpan with Ventury turbine at rear, four adjustable coilover shocks & original Audi suspension components and brakes, factory custom designed aluminum fuel tank, original Hella lights, custom muffler and other options listed below provided by Mid-Atlantic Concepts.

It seems you can use any transverse-mounted FWD format 4cyl engine. So if you had to keep it you could use the 4G63 from a FWD Eclipse... under the "options" tab, seems you can get a 220hp prelude engine setup for $4k installed...that's a damn good deal.


220hp in a 1850lb car = fast as hell

 

Well, thats what the article in KitCar mag said last year, but that isn't how they ended up going. The car is built from scratch and uses a 4cyl engine. It uses NOTHING from an accord.


This thing costs about the same as a Lotus Elise and I like it better!!!

 

pimp......pure pimp

 

thats freakin sweet

 

yes it is

 

actually, according to MidAtlantic Concepts, it is NOT. The early prototype had a lot of donor parts from the accords, but the final rendition is engineered from the ground up. zero accord parts.

 

i just learned of this car the other day and just wanted to bump this for anyone who knows anything on this car like who has one. also if anyone has any info on a evo engine being installed on one, hey you never know.

 

This was in an issue of HCI back in 05 of january. I liked it...pretty sexy...guy was running like more than 220...more like 350 or something...I believe it was a b series engine too..forged internals..turbo...etc
