I'm not sure, i haven't heard much about it really. I'm pretty sure the head of spoon motorsports, or whoever headed the project on it raced it once though. It took 3rd in its class and 6th overall in its debut.

My apologies, major brainfart. But I swear I read something about the original 5 not actually existing, I'll have to check that out. In the mean time, Porsche 911 (993) Speedster:

In contrast to the G-model and the 964, Porsche never officially released a 993 Speedster. However, two were built by the factory: a dark green Speedster equipped with Tiptronic S and 17-inch (430 mm) wheels for Ferdinand Alexander Porsche (his 60th anniversary) in 1995 and another wide-body, silver Speedster with manual transmission and 18-inch (460 mm) wheels for American TV star Jerry Seinfeld in 1998.

Integra Type-R sedan/saloon/whatever you'd call it.

I'm not sure if they are as rare in other countries as they are in the USA but they are nearly impossible to find in America.

Millions of them here in New Zealand,well not quite but is alot

Actually, speaking of the Type-R saloon, I saw one in Birmingham the other day with my mate Kaine. Wasn't sure if it was genuine or not, turns out it was, spoke to the owner and lo and behold, it had a B18

[J.red]

[Ben.H]

Nonetheless it was definitely a Type-R, I thought he put the stickers and spoiler on after but apparently not

LAMBROGHINI COATL
(IMG:http://drive-line.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/lamborghini_coatl.jpg)
This car was built in Mexico by Automoviles Lamborghini Latinoamérica S.A., a company which in 1995, actually received permission from Automobili Lamborghini SpA, under control of Michael J. Kimberly at that time, and Robert A. Braner, President of Automobili Lamborghini USA, to both distribute and build Lamborghini's in the Mexican United States and all the Latin American States including the Caribbean.

Only a single example was produced. Originally, the car was intended to be completely special-ordered by each buyer; the steering wheel, pedals, and seat would be custom molded, monogrammed initials could be engraved on the engine, and each paint job would be entirely unique. The single example of the Coatl did end up with a color-shifting 14-coat copper-like finish, to illustrate the elaborate measures that would be taken on each car.

The body was completely modified from the original Diablo, using components made of carbon fiber and a composite called "Epoxica." The rear bumper received major modification to a heavily curved design, and an early example of Altezza lights were installed in place of the normal Diablo units. The rear brake cooling ducts were extended vertically, nearly to the tops of the doors. The front of the car received fixed headlights, with a design not even close to what would be used on standard Diablos after 1999; the nose was also restyled with a heavily contoured air dam and a Ferrari F50-like hood with twin air extractors. A roof scoop, similar to that later used on the Diablo GT, was installed, along with a modification of the usual Diablo engine lid and rear spoiler. Interestingly, despite these considerable modifications, the wheels used were standard Diablo SE30 units

The Coatl's engine was also upgraded from the usual Diablo 5.7 liter unit. The engine was actually bored and stroked to 6.3 L (384 cu in) by McLaren, who also helped to develop the chromium-molybdenum steel spaceframe chassis. With these modifications, the engine was able to produce 644 PS (474 kW; 635 hp), which could push the Coatl from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.54 seconds, and on to 385 km/h (239 mph).

(f**k yeah Mexico.)

BONUS: LamborghiniUrraco-Jalpa transition concept.

Maybe the bodywork SUCKS
but the concept (everything custom and bigger engine) are really cool

1989 Toyota 88cv

2 were made, only raced in two races, it was a concept/trial for the 89cv which replaced it. First toyota lemans car to get the v8 and what a v8 it was, 800hp at race time, over 1000hp in qualifying from a nice 3.2L 90 degree V8 made from titanium, magnesium and carbon fibre (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Coupled with two huge turbos it was a car capable of 230+ mph. Possibly only one in existance now as there exists no photos of the taka q sponsored car outside of 1989

The fastest and most expensive Nissan road car ever developed was created to comply with the Le Mans GT1 Class regulations which required manufacturers to build at least one street-legal version of the race car. Unlike many others, Nissan built the road car first and built the racing version from it. The R390 GT1 design was the work of Ian Callum at Tom Walkinshaw Racing, previously acclaimed as the designer of the Aston Martin DB7. He was recently appointed Chief Designer for Jaguar.

At the front, Callum used headlamps from the 300ZX production sports car and the distinct twin front grilles which gives the R390 GT1 a Nissan 'family' look. The R390 GT1's long-tail carbon fibre shape was honed during extensive scale model wind-tunnel testing in England and full-size testing of the actual vehicle at Nissan Technical Centre in Atsugi, Japan.

Behind the driver sits the heart of this true supercar - Nissan's VRH35L Twin Turbocharged 3.5-litre double-overhead-camshaft 560bhp V8 engine. Getting that power to the ground from a standing start, out of corners or in damp conditions is a challenge and the R390 GT1 features a launch control system and traction control which, when encountering wheelspin, reduces power by limiting fuel to individual engine cylinders.

Inside are normal road car appliances such as full instrumentation and leather-covered driver and passenger racing seats. The short-throw gear lever for the Xtrac six-speed sequential gearbox and tiny racing steering wheel are reminders of the close alliance between the road car and the vehicle which captured four out of the top-ten spots in the 1998 Le Mans 24-hour race.

Underneath the all-carbon fibre chassis is upper and lower A-arm suspension with coil springs at all four corners, inboard shock absorbers and front and rear anti-roll bars. Braking is handled by huge AP 14-inch vented front and rear disc brakes with six piston calipers and ABS.

and the engine is derived from the R89c
