How did you hear or learn about the Goblin

[ctuinstra]

So tell us how you found out about the Goblin.

 

[Tinkles]

Honestly, I forget. But I didn't actually decide to buy one until I saw Matt Farah review one and Demo Ranch work on his.

 

[Lonny]

I saw one but didn't know what to call it until Adam told me what it was.

 

[Peregrinus]

Goonzsquad on youtube was my first time seeing one. Wanted one immediately.

 

[WYGoblin]

Demo ranch and then did more research on DF site after I got the nerve to start checking prices.

I stumbled onto it while searching for info about the Ariel Atom.

I was looking at going the Locost/Midlana route back in 2015 and found the Goblin development threads on the GRM forum. After a bit of hemming and hawing, lurking here reading the first build logs, and watching the first series of build videos, I knew this was going to be the way I wanted to go.

Googled 'tube frame mid-engine car' and DF website came up as one of the results. Have followed DF since their inception, thru early prototypes until I finally pulled trigger and purchased an assembled long wheel base track frame from IL.

I was looking at kit cars in general, trying to justify spending $ to $$$$ on a variety of them checking prices for the kit, donor, New drive train, and other ancillary costs. Looked up the Goblin, read through the forum, checked on prices and decided this was the car to build. Have been having fun ever since.

 

[PaulPerger]

YouTube search for "Kit Car under $20K". I have wanted to build a car from the frame up since I was a kid. Now I am going to do so.

 

[Goblin Graber]

I was going to buy a FFR 818 and then the goblin started popping up on searches.

 

[r3drckt]

FFR 818 was gonna be my first kit car until I found the Goblin. Didn't wanna deal with the subaru engines anyways

 

[Rauq]

I was hooked the first time I learned about the Goblin.

I learned about it in the 1320Video feature of @Justinreed7 's car at Street Car Takeover in Atlanta. Small world considering he's in my neck of the woods and we have acquaintances in common and have crossed paths before.

 

[Lechlis]

I saw @Wes and @Justinreed7 at Street Car Takeover Charlotte 2019. The rest is history!

My same thoughts, I GOT TO BUILD ONE OF THOSE

 

[Joebob]

I was looking at the FFR 818, the Miata based Exocet, or a Slingshot. The 818 seemed laborious and liked the open wheel aspect of the Goblin, Exocet and would cut fenders off Slingshot. The instructions on the Exocet was like step 1 strip Miata, step 2 put frame on chassis, step 3 enjoy. I liked the video coverage and now forum for support for the Goblin. I think that I can have a fun vehicle for less than the Slingshot with a seemingly more secure frame and no 3rd wheel. From all that the Goblin was my best choice.

 

[dastrups]

I had been following the goblin for a few years. If it were money no issue then I would have gone for an ariel atom. I researched all of the other kits and went back and forth on all of them for years. I saw Justin reed's videos and it was over. Since then I have discovered a ton of really cool and inspiring builds on here.

I learned about the Goblin when Adam posted on Locostusa.com many years ago.
