Only 6 produced!? That certainly puts into perspective the rarity of my cruising next to one in Florida...

So what's your solution...swallow hard and be done with it? If I dropped 1.7 mill(haha) on a car that only goes 10 blocks before it dies you better believe I'm going after somebody! He11, you should have seen me in the middle of a Ford showroom over an $1100 clutch! It was quite a performance. I'm still waiting for my gold statue!

well considering three of those are the same company and three of them had a direct hand in building/distributing the car...
i cant see the roof in the pic but is it actuall a "roadster" or is the reporter just retarded?

They call it a roadster. Google it.
Oh, and the author said 6 produced since 2002, but from what I saw they made them from 98-02, and not after. 25 produced in total. Down to 24 now I guess...

I dunno, too many questions about this "deal" are unanswered in the article. If he imported it himself, did it go through a grey-market importer? Was it actually street-legal? Did they actually do a once-over on the engine before attempting to drive it on its maiden voyage after it was shipped over? I wonder if it was shipped dry (other than assembly lube) and nobody checked the dipsticks. This just sounds to me like someone doing something stupid and then going on the attack against a manufacturer either because they didn't know any better or figured "He who shouts first and loudest wins."
