I don't know, but in that second pic in the background - the black car - is that a Lamborghini Jalpa?!

it had like 500 hp, it was too light when they went for the top speed run in NZ in the rain so they put lead weights on the passanger side floor. i believe it went 176mph and dude said it was all over the road. it's in a video called high octane 2000 i believe. i got my copy from racing beat a looooong time ago. lost it. this is where they also did a top speed run with the veilside r34.

Ugly, but that's one hellava engine =D>

the black car looks like a wingless countach. although youre right tim it could just as well be a jalpa. there was a few years there that they looked real similar.

sweet car, I think the wheels just make the gold overpowering though, I feel if they werent gold, and a diff. front bumper the car would look sick, just my opinion tho

that roll bar looks kind of puny on a car like that... :wink:

 

[LUV2TURN]

Looks kinda like a Ferrari 308 to me...

there was 3 cars IIRC the Gold Top Speed Skyline, that Gold Roadster and the Red RX7 with the funky rear fender well covers and scoot hood. That Roadster was sick fast, it was also in an options magazine, i think i have that issue laying around here, i will see if i can find it.

jalpas and 308's had circular tail lights, for it to be a lambo countach it would have to be an lp500s qv thats the only countach that had tail lights similar, but minus a big wing and other ad ons, so I wouldnt think its one of those. my first guess was first gen lotus esprit it also kinda looks like a DeTomaso Pantera too.

sorry for the bad image... it was an old digital camera and it was dark.. so... yeah

thats alsowhat I was thinkin...and a quick search confirms it. I noticed the rear window was way too big for a countach.

[Skinnyroadster]

It could be a wide body porshe 914.....looks a lil big to be one though.
