Er, hm.

It's a mutant Autozam built for the 1996 Tokyo Auto Salon. It has Ferrari F40 brakes (currently running some off an F50) and Porsche 962C transmission, diff and shocks.

This is officially the greatest car ever.

1952-1956 Woodill Wildfire

1953-woodill-wildfire-1.jpg

Most of these were kit cars, so images may vary. Best image I could find.


Limited production (like most sports-cars of that era), fiberglass, Jeep-Willys engine, under 2000 pounds. Doesn't look half-bad, either.
 
-> Apparantly, GM wasn't the only one who came up the EV-1 name:

^ Yeah, yeah, GM owns Saab. But who cares!? This should've been the Sonett 4!!! :(
 
It's the 1987 Mitsubishi Debonair V 3000 Royal AMG.

Which is possibly the most pretensions model description of all time; AMG Hammu would have sufficed.
 
AMG Galant

Pic quoted for awesome. Bespoke AMG engine and ECU gave this car 170 naturally aspirated horses, up from the 145 or so the regular Galant made. Not outrageously fast, but quick enough to be fun. And it's oh-so-rare nowadays...
 
Ferrari 330 GTO, effectively a slightly stretched 250 GTO with a 4 litre engine and 400bhp. Just 3 made. How did I only just discover this? More info here
