I really like these, don't like the wheels on this one though but could easily be changed for some MO's.
Not sure how much they go for but seems quite good value to me.

Strong money considering it isnt finished.

These projects are always described as 99% finished and worth a fortune when done etc, if the seller beleived that was true he would pay a local mechanic a couple of days wages to finnish it


Cool car though, id love a 200 rep

Very cool but.............

Based on its description and that it requires SVA its WAY WAY overpriced.

I dont think it would fetch that money even if it was finished.

Does seem a bit steep considering the fact that it's unfinished, and has some gash wheels on!

That GT4 based one is an oddity - Never seen one based on a Toyota before.

the fact it has those wheels on and there are no decent pics of the mechanics, worries me a bit.

If i was selling it id be trying to show exactly how good the workmanship is, if you get my drift!

Whats the point in the GT4 one though? it's not like the RS200 is a good looking car and underneath it is just a standard GT4 that no doubt drove better when it was original.

At least the other one is mid engined and designed as a track/rally car so has the potential to be a fast track car, even if it is more expensive.

but surely if you wanted a GT4, you'd be better buying one without a massive body kit to fall of?
