This is the first that I have heard about it, but T3 have rated the Midas Gold as the sixth best kit car.

One place behind the Ultima and one ahead of the DNA 360.
I've no idea of how they drew up their top ten, or if they took advice from any kit car experts, but its nice to see it featured so prominently.
