Hmmm - no "correct" answer here. I built mine, not sure I would do it again. Turnkey (assuming I could afford it) would be my next car.
If you build it yourself, you find yourself "fussing" and worrying about things you never would in your daily driver (did I torque those driveshaft bolts right, did I check those wheel bearings right, is the differential holding it's oil etc).
Few of us "builders" are automotive experts in all the many areas needed to get a car "right" - so we worry (well I do, especially at over 150mph).
These are things I would never even think about if I had bought a "production"" car capable of the same peformance (not that I could afford it etc.)
just my 2c's
