Thank you very much for coming down to Miami to make the video Daniel and thank to your followers for the comments, I hope next time you can make the video with the car completely finished, tested and detailed.
The company owner is super cool, very knowledgeable and truly a self made man. I love to see people come to the US and succeed, congrats to him and I wish him nothing but success in the future! Hopefully one day I can buy one of his cars!
Made it here because that “Pace car” Benz in the video is my good friend since high school, he told me all about DDR and the fact the founder is a fellow Dominican makes me like it even more haha great content def liked and subscribed!
That car looks fantastic. Personally, I’d like to build it myself. As far as the interior goes, I think I’d opt for a whole set of digital gauges just to break up the landscape of the dashboard. The leather looks really nice and the interior itself it’s VERY nice for a turnkey kit car, for sure.
I like it like this, hardly nothing in the inside. I don’t need all those useless buttons that break or malfunction. For 60k I would want that instead of a GTR WITH JUST A FEW KINKS worked out. It looks like a knockout McLaren.. just give me air conditioning electric windows and of course that performance power and I’m good. Great looking car for the money!!
Love what DDR is doing. The real question is, why pay 300k when you can pay 60k and get the same performance and get the same looks by everyone. People like to buy name. I bet if this car as it is was made by a bigger brand no one will be finding anything wrong with the car. The Grullon is the next car in my list to buy.
You hit the nail right on the head especially when I can supply my own suspension, engine and dial in the rest of the cars settings to my taste. It's like getting a custom tailored suit, versus just getting some high-end brand off the shelf. Sure some people could spent more, and it probably makes them feel good. However going back to the suit analogy I don't care what's the price tag on your suit if it's not tailored... It just looks stupid hanging off your body.
When I visited his shop, this 7.0 engine was just chilling in its crate on the floor. The car was just getting started being built. So cool to see it complete and driving now. Truely a work of art.
I mentioned in the video it wasn't finished yet, but I was still pretty impressed. Yeah, fit and finish will never be as good as mainstream brands, but compared to other kits cars this is top notch. Just my opinion, you can look around the other cars in this market to get an idea for yourself what the standards are.
I got more of a Koenigsegg vibe from it. I see the Mclaren in it but the newer cars DDR makes are very much Koenigsegg esque. The signature rounded front end with a combo of blunt and sharp features is very Koenigsegg of them.
Not the biggest fan of the rear and headlight design, but I love the overall shape. Stunning car. Nvm I just don't like the wing and the fender vents, everything else is amazing. I'll have one in all black please
Do you only do supercar kits ? Just curious because there is dozens and dozens of non-supercar kits out there too. Example but not limited to bucket t from speedway , porsche speedster kits , vw golf truck kit , exocet
Really like the lines on that car. Its like Mclaren F1...mixed with an NSX....with something else....but all good. Interior could be stepped up and this could start entering some supercar territory. Very nice.
i wish it was a center driver like the original Mclaren. i like the interior, gives it a real racing car look. might look better with just carbon all over.
3. things they can never get right on kit cars. 1.Front & Rear lights always look cheap. 2. Logo 3. Interior There are some cool looking bodies but the lights especially the rear always looks like an old foreigh unknown brand car.
Honestly the most disappointing part of this car for me is the interior. It's not terrible or anything especially given it is more performance built than for grand touring. I'm very much looking forward to their new design though.
huh, i guess some ppl like it and some ppl dont. i personally love the simplistic but quality looking (leather lmao) interior, but other ppl might like super crazy gauges here buttons there interiors
DDR is the ONLY kit car that MIGHT make sense...as a track car. It's a raw kit and not some corny "exotic" wannabe kit w/ shitty fit/finish. I'll never get why someone would spend $60-70K for a completed corny kit car when they could buy, oh idk, a REAL used exotic for the same. I mean...for $70K you can get a F Type SVR. Why would you want a kit car over that? Makes no sense.
I think there are quite a few nice track kits out there, from Ultima, Factory Five, Saker, even the RCR Superlite. I agree fit and finish won't be as good as the Jag, but what I like most about DDR is that it straddles the line between track car and show car. Just look up 'MCF1 EVO' and you'll see what kind of performance these cars can handle
Bro you fucking hit a home run with this shit very affordable beautiful powerful cars you'll definitely be seeing me in the future can't wait to make my order DDR Motorsports won't forget it
Very impressive, but needs a little refinement. 1) better sound insulation to engine compartment. Maybe a 2nd bulkhead with sound/heat insulation between? 2) better integrated HVAC. Look at Fiat 500 controls, heater box, condenser, and fan, and vents. 3) better aftermarket seats. 4) radio, GPS, ETC panel.
For 50k I'll buy another used Porsche any day of the week. It's fast, well made with amazing fit and finishes, and it is a supercar from a supercar company. For $20k, I can see it, but for $50k there are just too many options on the used car market.
@QuickshiftCars, the problem with these cars is, they have absurd performance figures... no matter what engine and transmission you put in them... their top speed will always be around 140-160mph... Let's see if they keep on doing tests to improve and extend those performances, because as design and kit it's interesting, but the performance section has to be improved a lot (especially if it depends on the chassis, and other elements such as suspensions, stabilizers, etc.). It is not logical to spend 60.000 dollars or more in a kit car with more than 500hp and then its performance will be that of a mid-low range sedan...
This car was far from road ready, No tune,no Oxygen Sensor installed, no, PCV system installed & other sensors not installed. All this now completed. Sounds GREAT & very powerful. Also with 750 HP & 2900 lbs. Previous car was a Gen 3 Viper, RSI built 522 cu.in.Twin Turbo, 1,000 HP & I believe this car would give it a good run for the Money. :)
So does every kit car company and boutique supercar maker. Fit and finish are very time consuming and quality-control contingent. Two things that usually go out the door with cars like these, the result of doing a lot with very little.
Considering the designer hails from the part of the world where putting every Autozone accessory you can find on your car is a good thing, I am not surprised. However i can forgive the digital dash. It cuts costs and all racecars use digital display anyway and this car is embracing the barebones supercar ideology of the 90s and early 2000s.
Thank you very much for coming down to Miami to make the video Daniel and thank to your followers for the comments, I hope next time you can make the video with the car completely finished, tested and detailed.
Thanks for having me! I hope you enjoyed the video, can't wait to work with you more in the future 👍
I’ve tried to contact this company several times for information but no one ever replies
@@-Atif- you must be calling the wrong place cuz they reply to my emails and answer their phone
@@fastfordstang13 Thank you very much for clarifying, I hope next time he have better luck.
Sir, im saving up for one now. This is so cool, and for a diy like me im looking forward to building my own. 👍
The company owner is super cool, very knowledgeable and truly a self made man. I love to see people come to the US and succeed, congrats to him and I wish him nothing but success in the future! Hopefully one day I can buy one of his cars!
From Dominican Republic 🇩🇴👏🏻 these car

So, a turnkey car that is handbuilt, and looks like this? Kudos my man! You sir are a true artist!
I'd say for the bang and buck,they have great quality for the price,and LS is a easy swap for great power.
Great vid! Now to save up $60,000...
Thanks! ✌
Tell brad to do a vid on this too
I came here after seeing your video....
Plz mention me in ur next video
The ideal media look-alike thumbnail made me clicked this one 😂😂

Couldn't have said it better myself
Amazing! There are virtually no limits to what can be done with ones creativity, skills and ambition.

Brand name
You hit the nail right on the head especially when I can supply my own suspension, engine and dial in the rest of the cars settings to my taste.

300k built they sell for 80-110k. We have a few in Florida that cant sell for 80.
I want to see updates about the Vera gt please
When I visited his shop, this 7.0 engine was just chilling in its crate on the floor. The car was just getting started being built. So cool to see it complete and driving now. Truely a work of art.
Actually badass! I'd definitely be interested in a finished interior look at it. Imo the interior experience is just as important as the style.
Thanks Daniel to show the work of Diego. I think the platform is very interesting and it's open for many interesting configurations
I love the old school look of this car. I wouldn't call it an F1 knock off, more of a 3rd party tribute care.
looks like an Apollo N
Hey good on ya for the in-depth review with this sweet ride.
Dude I literally just got into super cars and sports cars, and I literally subbed. Your channel is very nice ngl
Mi pana Diego Grullon Dominican Power 🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴
The value is there!
Uh okay I'm hearing him talk about how awesome the interior is and I'm looking at the images of the interior and something is not computing
wdym
yeah sure it might not be super fancy like an aventador or something but its nice
leather everywhere and also other cool stuff. im personally a fan of it, simplistic but nice
I mentioned in the video it wasn't finished yet, but I was still pretty impressed. Yeah, fit and finish will never be as good as mainstream brands, but compared to other kits cars this is top notch. Just my opinion, you can look around the other cars in this market to get an idea for yourself what the standards are.
If it's gonna be a fun race type street car,who cares about the interior,just make it simple without stumbling over 15 different buttons.
@@Superiordealsbazaar exactly
It so cool that Daily Driven Exotics are modifying one of these
Mom can we get mclaren F1?
Mom: We have a mclaren F1 at home.
McLaren F1 at home:
I got more of a Koenigsegg vibe from it. I see the Mclaren in it but the newer cars DDR makes are very much Koenigsegg esque. The signature rounded front end with a combo of blunt and sharp features is very Koenigsegg of them.
Que gusto ver a un hermano hispano ser tan creativo y exitoso !!!!!! Felicitaciones 👍🏾👍🏾
There is also the Rush SR1 which is $30k, but is ~400 hp I think. That said, this car looks great.
He had me at "five point tree vee eight liter."
Its looks doper without mirrors and graphics
That whole car is great. Only thing is the back looks too similar to a C7 Corvette. Needs a different spoiler.
The is amazing. Thank you for building such a cool kit car.
Looks like a moded Mclaren F1 car.
once the new one comes out , please show us
Great car! You should do a video on how to license and register these beauties!
Not the biggest fan of the rear and headlight design, but I love the overall shape. Stunning car. Nvm
I just don't like the wing and the fender vents, everything else is amazing. I'll have one in all black please
same the headlight looks pretty old style
Have you done a video on the rezvani beast alpha?
🇩🇴 Bien hecho. Espero el proximo generacion La Vera GT
Do you only do supercar kits ? Just curious because there is dozens and dozens of non-supercar kits out there too. Example but not limited to bucket t from speedway , porsche speedster kits , vw golf truck kit , exocet
needs more units made.. or ultima.. needs ac tempered glass etc no airbags but maybe harness
WELL DONE, bro. Keep the great car videos coming.
I'd like to see the new one
Nice work 👍
That car gives me ssc ultimate aero vibes
Ultimately it was not meant to be the car for me but I do wish the company well.
I wonder how much for the K20 model
Taught himself how to weld. Red flag. Nahh! I taught myself alot of things. Rock on!
Really like the lines on that car. Its like Mclaren F1...mixed with an NSX....with something else....but all good. Interior could be stepped up and this could start entering some supercar territory. Very nice.
What is the donor car? Because it can't just be any car, it has to be rear engine
I’m torn! Can’t tell if this car is ugly or super cool. I think it might be those black pieces and the lines
Hmmm i wonder, could i put an audi rs3 engine in it
Going to stop and chat with this folks in middle of February
i wish it was a center driver like the original Mclaren. i like the interior, gives it a real racing car look. might look better with just carbon all over.
Their new model is center steer 3 seater
How much does it weigh?
3. things they can never get right on kit cars.
1.Front & Rear lights always look cheap.
2. Logo
3. Interior
There are some cool looking bodies but the lights especially the rear always looks like an old foreigh unknown brand car.
No.not Ultima n slc
I need some help on designing a body like the Lambo or saleens7 or Where I could buy parts that’s my starting point
Was this filmed on an iPhone 2
dafuq no it has 1080p
Air bags or tempered glass?
Yea let's see the new one when it comes out
Honestly the most disappointing part of this car for me is the interior. It's not terrible or anything especially given it is more performance built than for grand touring. I'm very much looking forward to their new design though.
huh, i guess some ppl like it and some ppl dont. i personally love the simplistic but quality looking (leather lmao) interior, but other ppl might like super crazy gauges here buttons there interiors
If the car was made in the 2000s I bet you it would’ve been viral
thanks for the info
2:11 what's that blue car I'm interested in THAT
That is the Grullon Vera GT, there´s a new video of it in this channel!
DDR is the ONLY kit car that MIGHT make sense...as a track car. It's a raw kit and not some corny "exotic" wannabe kit w/ shitty fit/finish. I'll never get why someone would spend $60-70K for a completed corny kit car when they could buy, oh idk, a REAL used exotic for the same. I mean...for $70K you can get a F Type SVR. Why would you want a kit car over that? Makes no sense.
I think there are quite a few nice track kits out there, from Ultima, Factory Five, Saker, even the RCR Superlite. I agree fit and finish won't be as good as the Jag, but what I like most about DDR is that it straddles the line between track car and show car. Just look up 'MCF1 EVO' and you'll see what kind of performance these cars can handle
700hp manual pis
Is safe to pass inspection and how can I buy one?
Certainly intriguing
Went a bit overboard with the black add-ons on the red one.
Where can I buy one of these?
How do I purchase one?
Bro you fucking hit a home run with this shit very affordable beautiful powerful cars you'll definitely be seeing me in the future can't wait to make my order DDR Motorsports won't forget it
Fmart Mart needs to stop hating please
Where can you buy this?
Would this beat a c8 in 0 to 60?
yeah its like 300 extra hp
And lighter too.
If I can choose anything, I want a big ass spoiler and pop up lights
Do the new one too!
The finish is really bad with plastic inserts bolted on! And what that rear speed break is that?
5:40 Price
Is he 3d printing the shell?
This car has real gta vibes
What's the price of this car and can this be delivered in UK ?
There's a guy in UK that built one
@@budyeddi5814 where is it ? And do you know for how much he built?
I don't remember the city but I'll find the link. It's the GT4 version
The Mercedes Benz in the front is the gps??????
With a Auto Trans in it, with a LS7 upgraded engine, that would do me.
I believe this car will look way better in a single color..
Very impressive, but needs a little refinement.
1) better sound insulation to engine compartment. Maybe a 2nd bulkhead with sound/heat insulation between?
2) better integrated HVAC. Look at Fiat 500 controls, heater box, condenser, and fan, and vents.
3) better aftermarket seats.
4) radio, GPS, ETC panel.
I want one (GT8)
It looks like GTA V Mclaren F1 but better
So sweet for the money. Would definitely love to see the next model.
For 50k I'll buy another used Porsche any day of the week. It's fast, well made with amazing fit and finishes, and it is a supercar from a supercar company. For $20k, I can see it, but for $50k there are just too many options on the used car market.
Maintenance on this should be waaay cheaper than on a Porsche. Price tag isn't what gets you....it's always the maintenance costs.
U won't get a 700w hp. More like 330😅
I got a cayenne
Your looking at my next ride.
Nice car I’d like to build one but the video would convince me more but that annoying ass rattle or pulley noise 🤦♂️
I saw this car today being towed by a very loud neon green G-wagon, nearly crashed trying to figure out what it was.
Por 63000 me compro un Subaru o fotd rs diego te está pasando con los precios
That engine by itself costs over 10 thousand dollars
Must have one
I mean 60k will get you a really nice corvette. So what's the point of this car?
The wide body is fondly called the “Mucho Culo,” translated, “lots of *ss.”
@QuickshiftCars, the problem with these cars is, they have absurd performance figures... no matter what engine and transmission you put in them... their top speed will always be around 140-160mph...

Nice
Early gang where you at?
Ayyyy 😎✌
😆😆
Four months too late!
This is really nice. But man what the heck is that noise? I can't imagine dealing with that? Maybe different motor or some sound deadening would help

I watched a few Grullion kit car videos. The company needs to work on fit and finish.
So does every kit car company and boutique supercar maker. Fit and finish are very time consuming and quality-control contingent. Two things that usually go out the door with cars like these, the result of doing a lot with very little.
Oh my!..the 'screwed-on' light panels look REALLY tacky. The dash LCD thing is terrible. Best part is the NRG seating...
Considering the designer hails from the part of the world where putting every Autozone accessory you can find on your car is a good thing, I am not surprised. However i can forgive the digital dash. It cuts costs and all racecars use digital display anyway and this car is embracing the barebones supercar ideology of the 90s and early 2000s.
Young Doug!!!!
Wow! Ready to order one. Seriously!
