Nice rides. I don't appreciate the sarcasm on the intercooler though

Really nice, how much did you drop on it? And was it really hard to legalize it?

I had the same question.
There is a guy here in Texas that has one.....I heard rumors that it cost him around $15,000 to get it street legal

Nice Car........Your one of the VERY few.

Gettin the car legalized wasn't hard at all. When we bought the car from Motorex it was already legalized. And yes the fee for legalizing this baby is not cheap. We bought the car for about $50k out the door.

Foo...it was my car at VIP. The J stands for Jonari Corporation. they are the importers of WALD, RINSPEED, and VITT products.

Sweet GTR. I like the R33 the most out of all the versions. Nice acquisition!

BTW, I like your vanity plate! Now lets see if someone is dumb enough to fall for it!
