    the saddest part is - it's not even the VR-4, at least then it would have a manual tranny, twin turbo, AWD, and AWS...

    this is just, V6, no boost, FWD, and an auto tranny - oh the humanity of it all!!!

    If that is a replica, he did a good job, just needs to get some lower springs on the front, and it would truely look like a lambo...

    I believe that is a real car that was damaged in Beirouth, Lebanon, near the hotel "PHONICIA"

    Edit: You can find this info on exoticspotter.

    Actually that doesnt try to be an Aston copy, its call the K8 Attack with the drivetrain taken from a Honda Accord. its mid engined. It will cost you about 30G when all is said and done.

    They also have a lift button on the center console the hydro lift the car so it does not scrape it looks like they forgot to lower it.

    In America, that car is a 240sx, the only place its a 200sx in Europe... and yes, it deserves to have fire set to it.

    I think North America was the only place to get the truck-motored 240 version, Asia, Europe/UK, and Australia all got the real version with a real motor.

    But it was the 180sx in Japan, even though it had the 2.0L SR20DET, because it originally came with a 1.8L CA18DET, hence the 180sx name in Japan. It was the 200sx in Europe, because it always had the SR20DET, but in America, it had the KA24E in 89-90, and the KA24DE in 91-93. And the KA isn't a bad motor at all, as it can easily be made to produce 400hp on the stock internals, once turboed. Regardless of the name, it is an ugly Piece of Junk, at least that one is...

    There was one just like that at the Toronto RM Classic Car Auction last year, based on a Nissan 240Z chassis w/ a 240Z drivetrain. At first glance it didn't look bad and it did have genuine parts on it that are probably worth a small fortune, but I still wouldn't pay anywhere close to the $19,000 it was bid up to without meeting reserve!

    Yes, Tony I remember that car. That was gross. It was kicking around the autotrader for a while. They even claimed that it had "real GTO panels" hahaha, unreal what some people get away with.

    Hope business is well. Cheers,

    I appreciate the writing on the windshield "one of a kind". Let me be the first to say thank you that there are not any more of that abomination floating around.
