    Very cool, Claudio told me that is his personal favorite Cizeta.

    Does anybody know the whereabouts of the white prototype? Claudio said that it is possibly in storage in California. That is my personal favorite Cizeta and must see it before I die!

    Wish I had the dough to pick that up.

    That and a French racing blue EB110.

    I had a little Cizeta discussion with Aaron Hagar, son of red rocker Sammy recently. He acquired a pininfarina hardtop for his Alfa from me and we discussed cars and his friendship with G.M. Planning to hang with him soon at the Rat Runners Garage and learn more.

    Correct (originally delivered to the UAE, then sold to Japan). This car was for sale at Auto Garage for a very long time...

    BTW - I'd be really surprised if this car was truly here in LA.

    Wait, so this is not the car that was seized by the Feds?

    No. Chassis 104 is not the same as the car seized.

    I am in Japan right now and was hoping to see a Cizeta at some garage. Just had a weekend with two VECTOR W8s :)
    Any Cizeta at a dealership in Japan yet?

    I think the yellow TTJ Spyder is at the Shikoku Automobile Museum in Japan.

    Yes - white Cizeta (not the prototype) delivered to Indonesian client, apparently it is in "hiding" from authorities (along with other cars) because of the substantial duties and taxes required for import cars. Sad really (especially if true)

    I have never seen a Cizeta in Jakarta or ever heard of that rumor. My contacts here also never heard of any Cizeta delivered to country. I suppose the car is still in Singapore or Australia ?

    Cheers,
    Taffy

    Where was this pic taken? If this was in Indonesia I know the owner of the red Diablo. Too bad I can't see the license plates.

    Cheers,

    The first owner/client was presumed to be in Indonesia. As far as I know it isn't there now/anymore. Pictures were taken in SE Asia (malay area). Cars have been hidden for years in some shed (over a decade iirc). Apparently because of financial issues. And that's probably also the reason the owner wishes to remain anonymous. The financial situation or tax regulations make it impossible to export the cars or sell them, so I've been told. Perhaps there are criminal consequences. But I don't know the exact details.
