- When it comes to affordable alternatives to the expensive supercars of your dreams, nobody does it better than DDR Motorsport in Miami, Florida. Their lineup consists of six McLaren F1-inpired exotic kit cars that pack a performance punch at a bargain price!
From the C5 Corvette based DDR Grullon GT8 to the Toyota powered DDR Grullon GT4, there's a custom supercar for everyone offered by this niche kit brand. But can DDR Motorsport really compete with other cheap exotics like Factory Five and Ultima? Find out in today's video!
This video is for entertainment purposes only, and not intended as car buying advice. I am not paid or sponsored by DDR, nor have I ever personally worked with or purchased from the company. I'm just here trying to share my passion for awesome cars!

Looks like the GTA5 version of an existing car
The front end kinda reminds me of a 2005 nsx
McLaren F1 LM
True
more like automation car KEKW
Which is great! Now we can have GTA looking cars in real life!
It looks a lot like the F1 but I’m getting Koenigsegg CC8 vibes too
And a bit of Pagani...
I was just going to make the same comment .
SHANNON SA, I can see that
Lol
@@mr_sparkly_face4087 mirrors and lights very Zonda
This... is a DDR (in Doug demouro voice)
Read that straight up
Anditis the cheapest modern exotic on today’s market.
Maybe DDR actually stands for Doug Demouro Racing....
*This!.... is a DDR. And today, im going to review it.*
I'll wait for a Doug score
This car in a few years will not be a kit car no more, definably getting mine before starts getting to expensive.
Didnt that happen with other kits where they dont sell them after a while or the price is raised into Oblivion.
DDR has been around for a long time so yeah.
@@abes3925 Working on it!
@@diegogrullon131 the car should not be too expensive, after all it's a kit car not a supercar.
@@diegogrullon131 see you soon Diego lol
Really well put together piece of research. Would be really cool to see you review one. Awesome job!
Imagine he starts making it as a legit car company and brand just like what Christian Von Koenigsegg did
Yeah. Just like a Koenigsegg, but without all that 'engineering and stuff'...
@@lunapetunia3778 ford actually :)
Rest of it .
Yep I would like to see the DDR facility operation
I might be able to work that out!
@@QuickshiftCars please do I own a c5 corvette and I would like to see the processe , I also live in Florida.
Its a scam, trust me !!!
@@QuickshiftCars google their address (16697 SW 117th Ave) and check it with google Panorama, did you see any sign of a DDR there??? cus i didnt see any, its a big fucking scam, there was another guy who was doing that same scam in South America before
Please take this video down. It’s a scam and your gonna hurt people showing this because there gonna believe it’s real. This is a scam.
me: Mom i want a Mclaren F1
Mom: we have a Mclaren F1 at home
Mclaren F1 at home:
this doesnt make sense cause it implies you are not happy with the F1 at home
@@tryharderpls not really, but it could imply that
@rufio777 no u
@@tryharderpls if THAT's the F1 at home, then I wouldn't be happy either..considering what F1 is lol
Your mom is a smart woman!
1:57 All the cool kids drive around with their doors half shut.
I remember meeting Diego back in the days.. 😅 in the Dominican Republic I used to live there and was crazy to see a McClaren F1 driving through Santo Domingo.. I did not know back then that it was a kit car.. Glad to see they still around and actually making new models.
These kits are absolutely the best around the world!! Gorgeously designed, y'all must see the detailing on the ones by owners in Saudi Arabia, Germany and the Netherlands, absolutely incredible how affordable they are
Finally you review this car it's been decades.
I've always been interested in kit cars, these are amazing looking and you can't beat that price, wow!
Love love love this channel man!!! Keep going!
I looked into this company back when he first started and almost bought a kit then but ran out of funds. I’m looking to do one of them possibly now. they are one of the Best looking kit cars in the world. One of those would look awesome next to my Porschelol very cool you did a review on them 👍
I agree. This and the vaydor g35 are my favorites.
This is easily the best looking kit car so far .
Thank you very much Jerry, we work very hard to make our cars from scratch. Our team is very happy of your comment.
@@diegogrullon131 ur not the real guy right 😳
Love watching your videos you're doing an excellent job, the design of this car is beautiful it looks like a exotic car love the big wing on the back of the car. And I love the fact that you can customize the inside. Keep up the good work.
Great mix of information and video clips, well done sir 👍🏻
Thank you for the post, loved it!! Please & thank you on the review/drive once there's an available model for you to get your hands on! That would be great!
Great Report, informative and fun! Subscribed!
Thanks for your review. I looked at purchasing one of these kits a year ago, but discovered a lot of negative reviews on the internet. I don’t know how to believe. Maybe it was one crazy customer or maybe they are not a honest company? Maybe you could explore this angle by interviewing those who purchased kits.
It looks amazing and smooth to drive. Maybe those complaining did not succeed at putting all of the parts together. He said it, "it is your responsibility." So one better buys a preassemble DDR if available.
Wow i am dominican and i din't even know about this, so proud.
What does being dominican have to do with u knowing about this?
@@realmerc8373Other side of island for sure😂
Awesome Review My Friend...I will definitely look into this Car Company.
I know Mr G. he is a solid dude. He takes his cars to the shop I take my car to to for fine tuning. If you make it out to Miami holler at me. I can show you some stuff.
Don’t lie you take the city bus

This is a great idea, the real lego cars company! Great video! ✌🏼🤙🏼💯
Great video ! Just waiting the next!
Subscribed!! Will love to see you review a model live!!!
I been waiting for you and this video thanks man
No problem, thanks for watching!
in 2008 or 2009 , i helped build the original tube chassis for the blue car at a shop in Stuart FL called RaceCarBuilders . im sure DDR has changed stuff over the years . but cool to see this guy is still at it .
Looks like I have just found my dad a super car XD
Best kit car channel, keep em coming.
Thanks, will do!
Pretty dope channel to let people know about all the kit cars if people want to buy 1
Yes, yes, yes! Please do an up close and personal review of a completed car!
Grant, we're going to do some videos with very special cars soon. Stick around this great channel!
Enjoyed building mine. Good fun to build as well as buy
Would love to see the facility walkthrough, also checking out your motorcycle stuff
Really interesting keep up the good work 👍
Wow so cool they were on the corner of my warehouse,i never seen it complete only them working all night, so beautiful, great job!!!
Wow, I love the look of these cars and will seriously look into this! I am on a wait list for a C8 'Vette but this is far more appealing to me.
It's a kit car.
@@iHaveTheDocuments I have no issue with getting a kit car as long as it gives me what I am looking for. But after doing some research and having some contact with the company it won't be this one.
@@TheAeroegg what happened what did you not like curious
@@randalllawkin My plan was to have a turn key build and I wanted to have control over the donor car and remanufactured engine and personnally deliver those. The owner apparently didn't like that for some reason and abruptly stopped communicating with me. Fair enough, he has the right to refuse service. If you are serious about dealing with them, there are other things to consider. Just do the internet research and you be the judge. I plan on going with the Ultima RS but will build it myself.
@@TheAeroegg Try Superlite (SL-C) cars.
Thank you for this video. This is awesome
If I didnt have my 1970 Camaro project I would DEFINITELY be looking into one of these... totally badass machine here! Great video showcase too!
What model Camaro is it?
While I like this car, the Camaro should only appreciate in value.
Brilliant video 👍
Crazy how DailyDrivenExtoics are now building one of these🎉
Awesome! Great video
The kit costs $18,995 plus tax and shipping. You need a 1997 to 2004 Corvette donor car, which costs about the same as the kit. You need a boxter trans. Used around $4,000 or rebuilt with a warranty $6600. Boxter shifter and cable new around $700 or used around $300. Engine to trans adapter kit $1800. Misc. other parts. Using a complete running Corvette with manual trans gets you a lot of parts you will need. You will have around $43,000 invested before you start the build. I would expect the finished car to cost around $50,000 minimum. It will depend on how much you spend on the donor 'vette. You can buy a new base model C8 for around $60,000 and get a new car with a warranty. Something to consider.
I’d buy the 26k version so I can have a mini zonda... But the rear taillights are whack can’t they design them too look the The Vulcan taillights?
If I ever get to buy a super car I'll be this one, doesn't matter that it's a kit car it's just beyond awesome, amazing work from his Creator
McLaren F1 and Mosler MT900 just had a baby
Seen these years ago my brother and they are really works of art, my favourite is the Miami GT.
Great video as always mate 😊🤟
It's literally a shite f1 copy lol
@@rnichol22 and your point is mate ?
@@rnichol22 I'd love to see your designed and track tested supercar.
It reminds me of a mix between a Koenigsegg and a Pagani zonda. I like it none the less. I was leaning towards FFR GTM, but after seeing the newer version of the DDR, i'd be looking to price one of those out. good job on the video.
adding on to previous post. about the only negative i had with earlier versions was no windows. or the ugly little box for a window. i didnt see ifthey had a window at all on these
Would love to see a review of the Miami gt
Great job done by Diego Grullon in these cars.
Great video! Love the focus on Kit Cars specifically. But I'd just like to inform you that the GT4 is no longer in production. I spoke to Mr. Grullon a few months ago inquiring about the kits for sale, and he informed me that the MR2 (91-94) is becoming increasingly hard to find, and is becoming a bit too old to justify the Kit. So the GT4 is now discontinued. Just thought I'd give y'all a heads up. :)
Time to get another donor engine :)
this is awesome...i hope this is available in our country
I like it when the big guy looks out for the little guy.
These are a great idea, but if you don't have the patience to do it right? Stay away. I could do an engine, and suspension. I can't do body work or interior. For me, these are where cost comes into play? A nice interior, you're talking at least $10grand on the low side? Done right though, you will be the star of the show for decades! Anyone attempting to do one, I wish you success. Thanks for for the video. It was good.
I absolutely love how this car looks like it's straight out from Burnout Paradise. It's just so sick!
This is a solid ride. Nice.
Oh yes I would gladly want to see the DDR motorsports I always wanted one of those cars one day I will own one PEACE
Thanks a lot I'm getting a lot of good information I appreciate what you're doing I'm considering buying a kit car project you're being very helpful thank you
I’d buy that over a lot of sports cars 👍🏾👍🏾
but u still need a sport car to be the donor car
@@andrealmeida738 Just the power train. Al in, it is cheaper than most sports cars.
I'm looking forward to this
Diego, is a genius since was a kid
Thank you Mattias, blessings!
If you get a chance, I would like to see one. I even like to see an inbuilt kit.
Thats actually really sick
I happen to see you at a car show with hundreds of luxury and other sports cars and everyone had they eyes on the Grullon.
I found DDE Tim's car this is gonna be SICK
I LOVE Factory Five cars-But THESE are GORGEOUS!!
Nice kits n yes do more with the owner when he calls ya
I'm sure the turn key models completed are $80k to 150k
How does someone get started in building their own design? Thats awesome
Good video
Love to see the factory
0:38 : Mclaren F1, Pagani Zonda and Ferrari F50. I love it.
Superlite also makes an amazing kit.
Superlite is a great car and company.
@@ddrmotorsportus Can you get a Viper V10 in your engine bay?
@@tengu190 maybe, but more important is what transaxle you can use.
@@ddrmotorsportus whatever Hennessy and Lotus used when they made mid mounted viper powered cars.
@@tengu190 😅😅😅
Gorgeous car
Beautiful car hope you can get your hands on one. But hey where us the link to the bike channel.
Is there a Baja bug type kit out there? Pulling wheelies over small mounds was more fun than going 100 mph plus on my old Yamaha crotch rocket
Your looking at my next ride.
I’m getting F1 LM vibes from this
All I could think of was if the car was light enough, it should be fitted with a 200hp bike engine. That would be something special to drive, yet the honda engine would probably beat it in speed, reliability, gas mileage..
Is there any way that a garage can put the kit on the car or do I have to do everything myself?
love your videos well done
Yep need that
Okay since this is literally more than 15 times cheaper than the cheapest exotic (disregarding the aurelio) this is a better choice for us middle class folks
I would love to buy a kit car but I have no space to put it together. Does this kit car company offer a turn key which is that they put it together for the customer?
i love it!!
How much is a gt8ss automatic turnkey and does this company have finance options ?
Which donor car with the Hybrid power train did someone use on these cars?
Ayeee DR for lifeee🇩🇴
Looks like the GTA 5 version of the Mclaren F1. :D
I'm in Miami and never heard of this car!
I like how a Dominican invented this! He said he wanted to make this for people who don’t want to spent millions
Nice
how does it compare to the vaydor kit?
I had the idea for making a kit car manufacturer called GT1 replicas, and make replicas of 90's gt1 roadcars like the Porsche 911 GT1, Mercedes CLK GTR, and Nissan R390 GT1.
They got superlite
Your forgot to mention that to finish the kit costs something like $50-$100k. Might as well get a nice used corvette or something else
Do you do RHD for Australia ?
its a very nice kit, and you really have to be passionate about a custom experience to buy one, because the reality is that is nowhere close to $17,000 as the image in this video shows, infact you can't even buy their cheapest kit for $17k. You will easily spend triple by the time it is complete.. I am looking to buy one because I want a custom made car, but if I just wanted a fast cheap supercar, there are McLaren Mp4-12c for $85k used, and Nissan GTR is even cheaper, like 50k. Buy this car for the right reasons.
WOW Salim!! When you stated the price of the used McLaren at first I was like, baloney. But I just looked and there is currently a very nice, clean, 34,000 2012 silver colored one for sale for just under $85,000!!! Thanks for opening my eyes to this!!😊
how much does the whole car costs (assembled and everything)
Please look up videos on "Czinger 21C". It may open some eyes to future possibilities.
