Except for the square roll bar tubing!! It would be a score for someone with a nice car that had IMS failure though.

I wonder if it does run. Lots of sensors not in place there. The cars are not easy to fool.

That roll bar looks like it wouldn't stand up in a stiff breeze, much less a rollover. I like the big tires idea.

Autocross/DE special! Great concept and would be cool if done well. The rusty tubing sucks.

If you lost the POS cage and replaced it with a true 6-point roll cage, you might be able to get away with actually racing it.

My Boxster was a blast to drive, I can't over state how much I enjoyed that car. With much less weight it would be just spectacular.

You'd be surprised. Doesn't take much for a car to be road legal here in AZ...
