Well, at least you can buy one and not worry about getting parts. It's just a parts-bin car.
I'd almost consider getting one if it weren't for the fact that has a worse trunk than a fucking Miata.

and they actually used ALL the drivetrain and suspension stuff from mk2 Snek, right to those 6 lug truck hubs, not just the engine. They just made their valve covers that says "bristol"

S62 can be easily tuned to that with more agressive cams and better throttle bodies.

Literally what
>>
>>14422910

Dodge had a V10 truck prior to the Viper. Engine was loosely based on it.

>>14423080

Just because the Viper had 6 lug hubs doesn't mean they were from a truck. They don't interchange with any truck parts. Completely different design and construction.
>>
>>14423020
that's some good recycling, why did they fail?
>>
>>14423100
then why 6 lug?
inb4 powah, nope veyron, P1, LaFerrari,918... has 5
>>
>>14423126

That's what the engineers went with? Just because it's 6 lug doesn't make it a truck hub.

It's a good plan for a kit car too, major parts and minor parts and addons would all be easy enough to find.
>>
>>14423344
It was on explained on episode of Jay Leno's Garage. They cannot sell it as a functional car because land of freedom. So, customers come to their factory and help them in final assembly, so they can pretend that they built cars themselves and register it as a kit car.
