OMG you have a hyena! where are the pictures. I remember when they came out I so wanted one. I also remember a zagato based on a alfa Romeo at teh same time but I am not sure if any were made.
As for the OSCA GT above I am pretty sure none were ever sold. pity as for me it was the perfect car. Japanese mechanics dressed in a delicious Italian suit! Should have been the Italian Elise
light wieght and as I remeber was supposed to be cheap.

Beautiful car, great underpinnings, but they forgot to put an interior in the thing. No wonder they didn't sell any!

Great to see this thread again!
I love the Ecosse - seen a silver one IRL - and it looks stunning.

I second that, sadly they did not make so many, only a few I believe and maybe none LHD
lucky for us there are also many other cars to choose from sometimes I think to many to choose from
The longer I drove cars, and the more different cars, the more I know what I would like to see in a car what could make me a happy driver
>>Lightweight, at least under 1250kg (best under 900kg)
>>not to long, at least under 4300cm (best under 4000cm)
>>A good engine!! 300<>650ps, depends on weight of the car.
>>turningcircle under 12mtr
>>not to high, at least under 130cm
>>Coupe/hardtop car (don't like to much windnoise)
>>must be a real driverscar and connected to the road and the driver.
some extra's not realy needed but would be nice to see in the car;
>>ABS, DSC/tractioncontrol, elctricwindows/central locking, aircon.

here some unique Lancia Hyena Zagato cars only a few made using the Lancia Delta EVO as a base!! so a unique car using another unique car as a base...
They only made 15 of these integrales for Club Italia members. They are evo 1's (so 15" wheels) with high back red leather interior, it look blacks, but I believe it was called Ink Blue despite being the same as Lord Blue - anyone correct this if they know different. They have the club Italia badge on the front wings

Fantastic looking car - I did think they made more than two though. It retailed at around £390,000 here in the UK I think.
thats also what I thought...but I don't now the exact number built for the road, I know they raced them too...anyway they look good indeed
here a few more

My old AC Schnitzer S3 CS - only three right hand drive examples ever built!
Ah so you were the lucky owner of that very very fine motorcar !
I remember reading about that in BMWCar magazine. Extremely rare and a wolf in sheep's clothing if ever i've seen one. M3John.

I do recall seeing a Yamaha supercar from the early 90's which was similar to that but cant recall if i've seen it in this thread or not.
Like this.....
And a similar offering from Toyota:
