It's been on Mobile.de for at least one year with no takers... Too bad it's in Germany, for USD 27k it might be a good deal for a unique model.. It cost 135k US new....

It was in Road and Track's first issue of "Exotic Cars Quarterly"...

Beautiful interior and I like what they did to the steering wheel. However, from the front with the headlights up it looks a little like a mid-80's Toyota Supra.

That's because I think the lights *are* from an 80's Supra...

I was on that shoot but the art director shot it. I was in the can again and again and again with some dam bug. I remember being pissed that I wasnt the one shooting because it was a cool car and the location was so incredible. That is a great looking car.

It has some minor differences.
Do you think it's the same car?
The wheels are different, and so is the steering wheel and pod.
Maybe the white leather on the wheel just got too dirty, so they swapped it out?
And maybe the wheels got scraped up, or someone decided they liked something else?
I like the original wheels on the car in the magazine...
And it looks good with the lights down, but not with them up...

Well, the one in the ebay ad was an automatic, and the other's a 5-speed.
