I don't think you can get that thing registered. It's pretty much a track car IIRC

It was most recently sold at fiveninedesigns in Jacksonville, FL. If I recall they may have actually listed it here on rennlist. Below is a link to their write up on it. Best bet would be to call them and ask about it.

I remember this car! The GT2 with 100K in upgrades. Crazy.

Yah - full cage kinda limits it's use. I wouldn't trust my head vs some padding on the bar for street use - I'm pretty sure the bar wins vs head every time.

Anyone have a link to this beast on a track?

i was going to buy this car although without the ability to plug it into the ob2 as it does not have one you cannot register it

i was offered it for $65k by the orignal owner who thought it was just too much to handle

I think just the engine would be close to 30K or more. To register it, I can't imagine finding a 997 dash and installing it would cost more than a few thousand $..

I love that you can register pretty much anything in Florida..
