Stunning butvid still rather have the metro that it's engine comes from, although the way prices are going the jag will soon be Cheeper than the 6r4!

Loved it until I saw inside - if they're going to fiddle with the exterior styling, they could have done some with with the inside too!

I found two videos of what I believe to be the beast in question.

Owner drives and looks like a bit of a ccensoredck though. Probably explains the colour of choice and the fact that he's somehow managed to take a dump on the steering wheel.

If I had it I'd turn it back into it's original colour with the original wheels.

Cannot remember whether it was the bright blue or green one but still.

I'm sure they just pilfered those images from the RM Catalogue - and as that's a proprietary ebook thing you can't really improve on it.

A quick Google did bring this up tho

Really like that a LOT!! Good investment opportunity too but would need a new paintjob in order to fully appreciate in value, the Matte effect would turn a lot of future buyers off.

Incredible!

The performance must be totally outrageous, that much power in such a light car! Christ that's lighter than my MX-5 and has nearly 5 times the power! hehe

I believe this is a build thread of it http://www.teamspeed.com/forums/supercars/60943-ja...

After more research I believe it is almost certainly real... boxedin
