Did you ever get this to the point that it was ready for production at all?

Alas no, I am working on a car that will hopefully go into production, but it's in no way similar to this one!

Looking at the photos, there is no angle that I don't like the look of.

Good luck with the sale.

If you can afford to not put this into production your new car must be something very special.

Good luck with the sale!

that's stunning...... so modern/different looking... and future proofed too with the ability to take these taller modern 1000cc engines in the back.

good luck with the sale, I'd happily have that in the garage !!

I'd love to buy this off you but I've got a 964 to sell 1st, unless you fancy a swap for a 928 s4 in top condition?
