For anyone interested in real, gas-powered DIY sports cars, look for Caterham (genuine kits, the best quality) or the multitude of Cobra spin-offs.

Or for that matter, most any Lotus 7 replica kit
I think Caterham started off as a Lotus 7 replica. If I remember correctly, Lotus 7 was one of the only models that "open-sourced" their designs. That, and their "well-rounded" nature (cheap, sporty, easy to make), led to their huge popularity with the DIY community.
