having followed the replica thing since the late '70's, i have my own interpretation of phrases like:

kit car, roller, turn-key, turn-key-minus, component, pallet, and so forth. Perahps even the FFR "box" cars.

But i sure don't know how others intrepret these descriptions.

Personally, since i put in the key, and drove my SPF away, to me it was "turn-key".

To me, kits are where the builder has to put it together, sorta like a model airplane in a box.

When passerby ask me "is that a kit?", i reply, "no, it is a Superformance", and point to my big windshield decal.
