I looked for awhile and found nothing, but it's all kit car...it has a porsche shift knob and a Ferrari dash in the center.

Ok basically it exists a single JPP2 so it's the rarest car I ever saw

I will do some more translation in a while! Thank you dude!

They say it is based on a sportcar he crashed, and although the original, idea was a Mercedes V12 (the car is inspired by the Sauber Mercedes C9 BTW), he decided to dump it and went on with the original engine (but no info on the base car or engine)

Dropped them an email to know the base car and engine just out of curiosity

Indeed that is one rare machine, and one wealthy person to build it. :shock:

For the records BTW, I spotted it while trying to catch up with an Exige Mk II looking for a free parking place! I stopped hoping to find the Exige again but nope, I lost the Lotus, but probably it was worth. Exiges aren't that common, but still easier to find
