Not sure why they went with such a Porsche color but man this thing would be a blast on a track.

The Skinny:
Its hand built
440hp Bored out M3 motor
7spd Dual clutch only - BOOOO!
3,285lbs (420lbs off M3)
Fully adjustable suspension
Adjustable downforce
Doesn't look like its headed here and really looks to be aimed at race teams more than anything with its $170k price tag.

My guess is price is the reason behind them pretty much scrapping the project...  Looks like only porsche can pull that one off.   Cool

Well, there's the weight savings and the wing.  I actually like the color, what can I do?

Still, not worth it, specially since it looks so much like any leased 4cyl 3 series with leatherette and AM/FM radio as options...LOL
