And just quietly, this is what I'd like - but there's only one in the world! Three bodies of the GTR-X were made by Holden and the only completed car lives in the Birdwood Motor Museum in South Australia. It was a fibreglass construction with XU1 specifications capable of top speed of 180 but the bean counters wouldn't OK the project, even though they'd gotten to the stage of printing all the sales material!
