The GM H2 would not be a great kit to produce; GM is making thousands and thousands of them, they come with a great warranty, and it just wouldn't be economically feasible to produce a kit. By the time you bought the kit and a donor, you're already reaching the price point of a new H2. And the used H2s are already hitting the market at $40K. They're a neat rig, but the resale on the truck is going to make that used price come down to $30K pretty quick; 2 or 3-year leases mean that in another year, the cars are going to start saturating the market at that price.

On the other hand, the Hummer (I refuse to call it an "H1") is a really expensive truck. Used ones are also really expensive. If you look, you can find '93s (first year civvie) for $38K, or '85 ex-military trucks that have been ridden hard and put away wet for $24K. There are several replicas out there of these trucks that are made out of either long-bed pickup trucks or Suburbans. If you can put one of these together, you can probably sell it for around $24-30K easy. And the kits aren't all that expensive, either.

Of course, my favorite is still the Lamborghini LM002...

As far as vhtuning.be goes...Maybe it's just me, but I want you to go to the website and look very, very closely at the pictures.

Maybe I'm jaded, maybe I'm not, or maybe I'm just jealous of someone who can do photoshop better than me. Now, I'm not sayin' that they're not making the cars (although I have never heard of them before), but look at the cars really closely. Look at the backgrounds, and look at the shadows and the reflections.

I don't think those cars or pictures are the 'real' deal.

Maybe I'm wrong. But - for instance - here's what I see:

VH Class Line: The shadows under the two cars are different. The car on the left has a shadow leaning to the right, the car on the right has a shadow leaning to the left. The reflections on the hoods of the cars appear to be 'wrong.'

VH Coupe Line: The shadow on the right car is longer than the shadow on the left car. The cars aren't reflected in the glass of the building, and the building isn't reflected on the cars properly.

VH Elite Line: Cars aren't reflected in building.

VH E-Type Facelift: Shadows coming off mirrors are are two different angles, like the pictures of each car were taken at different times of the day.

VH Select Line: The reflections of the building behind the cars is wrong, the lamppost doesn't appear on the roof of the car on the right, the car on the left's nose is in sunlight, although there's a shadow on the ground that the nose of the car should be in. Also, the cars are too close together, and at different inclinations (the same amount of 'roof area' should be visible on both cars, but the car on the left looks like it was taken from a slighly 'higher' perspective, so there's more roof visible).

VMB W208 CLK Cabrio: I can find nothing wrong with this picture, other than I can't figure out what they did to the car, other than give it a not-very-attactive hard top.

VH Sports Line: Cars are (once again) not reflected in the windows of the building. Although this picture and the "VH Coupe Line" pictures were photographed in front of the same building, the signs on the buildings are different (in the "coupe" picture, the words are floating about the glass, in this picture, the words are 'on' the glass). Also, when comparing this picture with the "VH Elite Line" there's a red light missing on the left edge of the picture where the warning sign is. Also, if you compare the Sports, Elite and Coupe pictures, the reflections in the windows are all different - true, they were all taken from different angles, but the actual 'stuff' that's reflected is all moved around funny-line.

But, once again, that's my opinion. Check the pictures yourself, see if I'm being wacky.
