Add in the investment loss when you sell the thing for half what you put into it and you're at the cost of a GT3. There, we're done.

uh, this is a shop car fella, probably not going to be sold, and I'm sure they can handle a loss, the point of the article is that the car is being built for time attack and will compete with the elite, I think you're getting way off track with your logic.

So you think this heavily modified car is going to go up against a STOCK GT3 in a Time Attack series?

Shop cars are almost always sold eventually, primarily because they want to get on to new and better projects.

Someone's off on their logic. It ain't me.

From the looks of their shop, they're not exactly rolling in money, either.

regardless. whatever happens, you still forget the very good pr they will get from this. lots of media exposure for them as the guys who were able to get a nissan fairlady z to go as fast as porsche's popular supercar (assuming they succed in their plan). this alone may generate a lot of traffic to their shop as people would send cars over there to be tuned.
