I'm sorry but I'm with that other guy. What is the big deal about this car? I don't want to bash or anything, I was just wondering. Someone stated that it beat the S2k in a comparison on 5th gear so I'm assuming it handles pretty damn well. Other than that does it have a higher output engine or something? Again, not to bash, just wanted to see what all the hype was about.

It has a modified K20a in it, I am really not sure what all they did to it, but when I had my K20 I was making 201whp/151trq on a dyno that a stock S2k made 210whp/144trq. This was with basic bolt-ons and K-pro, so my guess is that the output of that motor would be similar. I weighed in at 2500lbs with my civic, and with that hp/weight it was faster than my S2k. From what I see the Mugen RR weights in at just over 2700 lbs., so my guess would be that speed would be similar to the S2k.

LOL - TVRs are effin sweet.

The UK has access to a bunch of badass cars that I'd love to own:

Sagaris
Tuscon S/R
Opel Speedster/Vauxhall VX220

and of course built MKIV Supras for 15K.
