The car is absolutly amazing to see in person. A ton of passion went into the design and execution of this build. Its a true street car that fires up every time and can be driven anywhere. With the right fuel in the tank and the boost turned up, there isnt much that could touch it on the highway. With the boost turned up and launching from a dead dig (even with the right tires) this car would be a handfull to drive and most people would not be able to handle it. It has set the bar for performance in an Evo 8 which will be hard to equal in a streetable package. Is it practical? WHO CARES!!!!!

Good luck with the sale. I sure hope she finds a great home.

I agree. Some ppl just gotta hate.

Also if someone buys it and doesn't like the color or wing or whatever. Change it to suit your taste. Bottom line for the price he is asking for that car compared to what it cost him to build. It is a bargin.

Good luck with the sale.

I wouldn't exactly call a dyno number "performance" This car has never seen the track.

Now, personally I wouldn't buy this car, I would have to change too many things on it. I think why some people are "hating" is because most of us would love to have the means to build a car like this, and then never making a single trip down the track, and is for sale within a few months of it's completion. It just seems like waste.

Having said that, I hope someone buys it who can appreciate it for what it is. I doubt it will ever be faster than a 2.0L/42R, but it is impressive none the less.

Good luck with the sale.

It is quite incredible in person and I have seen it in action and it definitely holds up to its claims
