Didn't Ford do a couple of similar things about 20 years ago.

Wonder if they'll sell one for the road

I'd give them £15k for one

The F1 Espace was in the original Gran Turismo. Was a bit of a pig to drive if you liked the external car view, as you couldn't see the track in front of it, it took up the whole screen

Saw that years ago at goodwood FOS, they also had a bmw x5 with a lemans car engine in it. The idea was to be able to give passenger rides for corp/exec clients to give the experience of the speed etc of a formula 1 car. They've since done the 2x seater f1 car derivitives for this purpose I understand. Can't remember where I heard this but it was some time ago.
