If I had a spare $235,000 it would be stored in my 10 car garage :lol:

That thing is beyond cool :D
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

Yup... I stopped and had a look at this last time I went past Hoffman
ford (same guys race an immaculate late 60's Mustang). This RS is
exactly what they say it is... looks just like it has been in a museum
since the week after it was delivered to the first owner.

Nice car... kind of like a space frame AW11 :wink:

I love how quirky and weird looking the road going version is.

It sure as hell wouldnt pull chicks, but it would be hilarious to try.

How could anyone own that & not drive it?

65kms travelled per year - waaaay to much self control.

Pretty sure that's where the steering wheel came from.

Given some of the other cars he owns, its not hard to see why
1988 KE70 Wagon - Slowly rusting
1990 NA6 MX-5 - because reasons
2018 Ranger - Because workcar
1997 FD3S RX-7 Type R - all brap, all the time
OMG so shiny!

I only see one problem with owning a car like this is that it would never get driven to anywhere near its potiential and if in old skool group B spec theres probably only a couple of dozen people on the planet that could really drive these cars.
