Magento vs scratch build?

I have a site build which seems to suit Magento up to a point, but the client doesn't actually want to sell anything - at the end of the process of choosing a product the user would simply be redirected to another site to complete the transaction (or not).

I would like to avoid just hacking these features out of Magento entirely so we can upgrade the site as automatic updates come out...

Anyone done anything like this before? Or would the resident gurus recommend a more 'from-scratch' build recreating the nescesary features?
 
If you have programming experience I would think something custom built would be more suitable. At my last job, we looked at various shopping carts and finally decided to roll out our own. "Hacking" what was available would've taken us more time and frustration. We ended up with a system that worked to our liking. This was a full blown shopping cart with credit card checkout.
