Interesting. That's Stevens Creek?
The 959 was meant to be serviced by the factory. I don't think dealers can even buy the $200K+ in special tools to service the thing. Interesting.

I thought I read it was impossible to register the 959. I read a long piece by Jerry Seinfeld about how unhappy he was the government would not allow him to drive it on US roads. That car must be track only? It looks too clean to be tracked...

There are some 959's on the street but the idea was to have them returned to the factory for service each time. I guess that made sense when the cost of the car was higher.
It's still a stunning car. A bit spendy to drive much more than as a show car though.
