Do a search on Rally Fighter and you will see it has been discussed several times earlier. No ALL wheel drive...

Is this a 4G Eclipse upper body?

Not sure why, but the 2 wheel drive would bother me

The company (Local Motors) is just up the road from me. It has been on the market for 4-5 years...time to get out of the cave more often :D

When they designed it, they took input on various car parts. It has door handles from a Miata, mirrors from X and so on. It is a hodge podge of various vehicles. They did an episode on Top Gear US a few years ago, they beat that thing up, destroyed one early on by driving in the water. I agree, no 4wd option=no go for me.

There is one used on the road legally here in Corvallis.
Super beefy but rear wheel drive and it looks like a Toyota motor?
I took pictures of it.
It was pretty rad for street legal.
