    first off....i would remake the whole car in CF
    drop in a 20B motor with all the works for a healthy 900+whp
    coilovers, replace all the seats with bride zetaIII
    then TV screens behind the 2 front seats and 2 on the dash...ps2/xbox/pc/etc....
    navigation, keyless entry system like on a prius, m3 door handles...13" brakes, 19" SF CHALLENGE(6lugs).......and on and on....

    I would buy a shell and attempt to recreate the prototype, with carbon fiber gas tank and floors, functional split rear door, binnicle dash with pop-up TFT screens and skinny tires. I'd put a 2.2 L Turbo under the hood and keep the weight around 3K - now that would be both a fun and challenging project!

    Thumbs up

    Hmmm... after getting one of each US color I'd get an additional Iron Man for use as a rally beast. It'd get the following:

    Entire drivetrain removed and replaced by custom double a-arm suspension at all four corners with coilovers. A turboshaft engine would be under the hood driving a high-output DC genset. Coupled with a FADEC it would drive four high-torque, oil-cooled and planetary geared electric motors driving each wheel directly at each hub.

    No transmission, all-wheel drive, increased ground clearance, lighter weight and all accompanied by the howling shriek of the turbine! UBER VX! Muwhahahaha!

    Oh, and it'd run on 100% Ethanol to make up for all the environment it'd be tearing up. :bgwg:
