I really need them to build this car!
I'd be very close to first in line to buy it, and I don't even know for sure what powerplant they would be putting in it!
I know it's probably not ever going to be produced, but does anybody know what they've considered putting in it.......or talked about?

Yeah..................even if they do make it eventually, it will most likely look alot different and that's too bad. I think the designer did a very, very good job.
I don't say that about any cars. I know it's all subjective and personal taste, but this one really gets me!
