Thanks for posting. It looks very well engineered and personally I like the way it looks. Also don't mind the dash which is in keeping with the overall design IMHO as opposed to the M3W dash which looks a bit modern for the rest of the car, If the main criticism is the position of the steering wheel and the background music it looks like a winner

Sounds great not sure about it's face though and as Wilson pointed out not much frontal protection. The engineering is top notch as with all Peter's productions but I would be very interested to know the final price for such a creation, I'll hazard a guess at twice the price of the last production M3W.

LOL, Some will get the soundtrack, and Peter Dron has offered a good hint on the connection, which I find very cool once realized. The steering wheel's quick release does not have a key in the splines so it can be attached in 36 different positions. I was also lucky enough to get behind the wheel for a go and the torque, power, and sounds that have been coaxed from the 1.8L flat-six are magic, add that to the experience of piloting from the nosecone and the result is transformative exhilaration! Yes, very different from the V-Twin for sure and I'll not be trading anything out; prefer to put another ACE up my sleeve

That GL1800 engine will be silky smooth and putting out about 50% more power than the M3W. Has he kept the sequential gearbox? Would allow for very quick clutchless changes up the box.

Transmission is sequential and it drives like a rally car! This pic didn't make the cut.. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2021/10/11/ACE_Seat.jpg) I bet it is glorious to drive. And you don't have to look at that front end from the cockpit

Has Peter started selling any of the Ace 2.0 cars yet? I know he is fairly limited on production of any car he builds, but wasn't sure if he has sold any yet.
