    Nice to see a Revology being driven spiritedly. Rvolology demos are always sedate, which is understandable.

      I was wavering about driving it like that, and documenting it on video, but the car seemed to demand it. And was so good at it!

    I know the concept has been beaten to death 100x over, but even as a huge Audi guy, I will always want a fastback restomod. Nothing Eleanor-like level of crazy, just something super clean with an oem+ look like this. I love it 👍

      100% agree. I already knew these cars were cool, but the clean styling really stood out in a sea of modern cars. EVERYONE loved this car as we drove it around Orange County and North San Diego County. Truly timeless styling.

    Yup. They are amazing. The engines too. And they can be infinitely customized.

      @ Yes because until now I never found any uploaded testimonial/review by their own customer.. I don't mean to making bad suggestions but it would be good to see comparisons between their cobra jet engine and the standard one, even though people like me who admires their creation but never know when will we get one in life.

    The Borla exhaust on this one, is it the standard Revology Borla offering or is it the Attak version? I like how this one sounds. Thanks for putting this through its paces.

    • @KarlBrauerCars
      @KarlBrauerCars  15 днів тому

      According to the order sheet this car had the standard Borla exhaust. If you go on Revology's site you can spec out cars with a more aggressive Borla exhaust system, which I'm now curious to hear. Planing to do another test of something like the GT500KR version, with the 710 hp engine and that more aggressive exhaust system, in the future.

    Great review! Im actually going to test drive one this month. Let me ask you this, did you notice any exhaust smell with the windows down. Ive got old cars and i hate smelling like exhaust after driving

    • @KarlBrauerCars
      @KarlBrauerCars  20 днів тому

      Good question. I did not notice any exhaust smell. However, the low location of the gas filler (centered between the taillights) made it tricky to fill it up without spilling fuel. So I did smell some gas for a few minutes after fill ups (mostly on my own hands), but otherwise no bad odors.

    • @KarlBrauerCars
      @KarlBrauerCars  5 днів тому

      You can register Revology Cars in any state. They register as their original production model year, meaning a 1965-1968 Ford Mustang.

    9 Inch rear end gear whine? Really? Non-issue to me. If I want quiet I would buy a Tesla. Much easier to change gears (removable 3rd member) with the 9 Inch. A 9 Inch with IRS would be the ultimate with this beautiful machine.

    • @KarlBrauerCars
      @KarlBrauerCars  18 днів тому +1

      @@axe2grind244 Agreed -- it's why I've never been a fan of those cars. The $250,000+ for a Revology Mustang isn't cheap, but $1 million for a Singer strikes me as pure greed. The Revology cars are BRAND NEW from the ground up, and thoroughly re-engineered and build on an assembly line. Three times their cost for a modified 911 chassis? Doesn't work for me.

      I hear you. It was tough for me to conceive when I first looked at the site. Now that I've driven the car I can see what you're paying for. It's still A LOT of money for a 1960s car, but the degree of refinement, technology, and capability really is what every original Mustang/muscle car fan dreams about. If you have the means (and Revology's production rate and backlog of orders suggest plenty of folks do), driving these cars is a truly magical experience. And people LOVE them. I have owned two Ford GTs (a 2005 and a 2019), and I've had lots of exotic cars on loan. The degree of interest and genuine happiness this car caused was unprecedented in my experience.
