I'd have my car rebuilt,the bits I would use from another car would be interior from a WRX or an Outback,the VDC and transmission from a STI,bigger turbo from whatever and a lot of aftermarket engine management goodies.

With no limits I would use aircraft grade Titanium for the body. Strong as steel at only a fraction of the weight.

For the engine, I would go with compressed aluminum cnc machined like the top of the line race cars have.

A lot of the other components I would take from the koenigsegg CCX. Like it's adjustable shocks and lots of carbon fiber components.

Better hope the AC doesn't fail on a hot day, or your pants are going to look like, well I'm sure you can guess. Hehe.


Me, I'd have to say my TransAm, CF hood/fenders/bumpers/doors. chromo roll bar (for chassis stiffness and easy of access. build LS7 and a get-rag twin clutch transaxle for good chassis balance.
