I'd hate to think about how much they wanted with the race engine included. To be fair though, like they say It would cost you a hell of a lot more to replicate. A bit on the expensive side for a track day car.

With that chassis work it deserves a fully built engine...though some mild tweaks could see it to 240-250BHP

Trouble is with that asking price it's more than most folk are willing to pay for a track car
