    Here is a link to the history of the BMW f2 cars. I'm not sure if the real car that the model was based upon still exists, or if it does, it is still in that form. I do not keep up with prices on real F1 or F2 cars, or the market in general, for that matter, except when it comes to the specific marques and cars that I personally have interest in....marques such as Siata, Nardi, Alfa Romeo, etc....

    The motors themselves are here..they are 4 cylinders, but with 2 sets of injectors per cylinder!

    Very interesting! Thank you for the info. The engine really makes me suprised, I thought it was a V8 until you said it was a F2 car, and then got confused.
