    Also, previously known as the 'Nova' (then based on a VW floorpan). First manufactured in England in the early 70's.

    See the last couple of posts on this page: http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=19010&page=84 of the 'Crappy Replicas' thread.

    They are coming back www.sterlingsportscars.com

    Its no longer VW based anymore now you can get a tube chassis for them with WRX engine for power.

    I really like the Neira verison of this car with the gullwing doors.

    Funny... I once asked about the same car, after it made about a second long appearance in one of the Miami Vice episodes. I love how the whole cabin opens up on those, like on a Saab Aero X.
