+ Why would I buy a FFR 818 if I can build it myself?
That is a great question, and one we often get. We have additional information about this on our blog, https://www.formacars.com/blogposts/2018/12/should-i-build-my-own-car. Here is a simple explanation, if you really want the experience of building your own car, do it. If you really just want to enjoy the car, hire FormaCars to build it for you.

Generally, it takes 90 days to completely build and deliver your car. That is after we have received the frame and chassis.
