I thought the Challenge cars were for track use only and not legal to use on the road? Heard this from Chris who runs WRC motorsport and used to prep a Challenge cup 355 in the Ferrari series. Would have thought that one has been modded.

you can get road legal ones, have seen a few of them around for sale. Im guessing they are the full race prepped ones though!

it is an mr2 with a body kit on. You can tell by the rear windows. Also the interior dash is that of an MR2. My Brother used to have an MR2 Turbo a few years back and was thinking of buying this kit. Can get these replicas on ebay for around £8000 or less. Some are pretty well done and some are shoot.

I beg to differ mate. If you owned a ferrari would you put speedlines on it and a non standard steering wheel with a yellow ferrari badge off ebay stuck on it? And the interior is an MR2 interior.

what if it was a MR2 355 kit, put on a real 355 chassis, with 355 engine and interior?
