Is it even street-legal in the U.S.? It's a death trap if used on the street.

Never before has a car that's sold in such small numbers generated so much attention on the internet.

Yes actually. The track version is $5k less than the street legal version. I'm pretty sure the price advertised is the street legal version too.
