JohnGar just came across this this listing (http://www.snagajob.com/job-seeker/jobs/job-details.aspx?postingId=1287682) for what looks to be a new tenant in Downtown Disney.
According to their Web site (http://www.ridemakerz.com/RZ/Pages/AboutRz/ourcompany/default.aspx), Ridemakerz "offers kidz from 6 to 106 the opportunity to customize and "trick out" their very own RIDE."
You start with a base car (starting at $29) and customize it with tires, wheels, engine noise, decals, running boards... you can also add Radio Control for $25. They have models ranging from Corvettes and Mustangs to the Mini Cooper and Scion Xb. (No smart cars?!?) It all adds up - I just let my car-obsessed employee look through the Web site, and the car he customized online totalled over $80.
Like Build-a-Bear, the store offers parties and special events - including "team building" events for companies. (Did someone say... MouseAdventure quest?)
I don't know when they are opening or which space they are taking, but there was something going on in the former Illuminations space last week, so maybe that's where they'll go.
