No doubt, it would be a very interesting acquisition for any petrolhead in the US due to its obvious rarity over there. Hopefully, they don't just import them to get hold of the Lancia motor!

Well done that's right it was Tipoboy. Early 2000s I think too.

Looks like he is hopeful someone in the USA will take the car-and it will get it as the first one know to be there. Lets hope so. Made me laugh when he lowered to a whisper to mention the 20vt :-) But hats off to the mighty 16vt-shame there are not more of them around now! Regards MM

Pretty easy to get LHD in Japan but I'm surprised that having the speedo in km (without MPH markings) is permitted. I wonder how many will make it to the US, and in the land of the cheap car, how many people will consider spending up to $20k on one?
