That is... Incredible. I would be hard-pressed to find a more impressively done car than that. My landlord has two A's; a one-off sedan and a pretty standard coupe w/ rumble seat (pretty standard... literally looks exactly like the Franklin Mint model, color and all). I have been in them a bit and I cannot even imagine what it would take to get one through a corner like that.

Mine would be an eight-six but with a Toyota UZFE motor, custom-mounted as low and far back in the bay as possible while being streetable. N/A aluminum V8 power in a lightweight RWD 2dr hatch FTW.

you seem to be into rotaries bwaynep, why not an EJ20 swap into a 914? it retains the same boxer layout, and is actually lighter than the type 4 by a hair. BTW, wait til I post all the V8 RX-7's! haha
