Would be pretty rare here - have to say I find those one of the ugliest supercars ever though, surpassed only by that abomination made by Spyker (and probably some others I haven't thought of). Obviously some people like them or they wouldn't have sold any.

If anyone wants a Legacy I'm considering selling mine and buying a proper 4wd for offroad antics, thats kindof on topic. Be a major change for me to not have a Subaru in the garage!

Cant be many others in the country.
Saw a white one in Invercargill a while ago. Impressive but ugly, all at the same time...

Saw my first SLR at Leadfoot this year. Not my thing at all, noone buys a supercar because theyre fast and thats about all they have going for them.

It's in the used cars - a Spitfire at $913,000 unfinished project.

These are quite rare now-and we all must have seen that memorable bit of film of Ari Vatanen giving his navigator a fright in one of these: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=60...

That'll be because its been on Trademe consistently for almost two years. Have to give the seller credit for persistence, Id have dropped the price or given up by now.

I like the Lancia posted above and the Classics mags are saying they're the next big thing to increase in value.
Would this ex- Rowan Atkinson EVO 2 imported for the same $39,990 be a better investment?

Banks Europas are the absolute dog's danglies. A Type 47 track car would be an awesome thing indeed. The McCarthy's one here in NZ is a seriously rapid little thing, runs circles around my Exige!
