So, I went to a really unique show on Saturday, held at a small airport in upper bucks county. Lots of unique vehicles & lots of vintage small planes flying in. While there, I checked the map to see how far Lebanon, NJ was from Erwinna, Pa (where I was at), as there was a very very unique car show in the park in Lebanon. A national TVR meet, where I got to FINALLY see, in person, a Cerbera (V8 2+2), a Sagaris (bat**** crazy) and the one car I want to import more than ANYTHING that is available....A 2000 Tuscan!
For those who don't know and didn't see my post before (a few weeks back) it's the car that was in Swordfish with Travolta, Jackman and Holly Berry (though, most remember the movie for a different reason

). It is the definitive car that wants to kill you as there is ZERO ABS, ZERO Traction Control, ZERO aids to help the driver. Add with that a 3.6L to 4.0L inline 6 with ITBs, that TVR made themselves, putting out anywhere from 325 to 400hp depending on tune and displacement (and if it has a Red Rose Package). All this in a car that weights about 2,600 lbs and is only a foot longer in size to a freaking Miata!
Yeah, these can sell for low £20k to upper £30k British Pound. Do the conversion for a car around £26,000 and your talking about $34,600 give or take. Add import fees, duties and the new ******* tariffs set by some *******, your gonna be in one for around $45k or so. Insane value for the car you get. And only about 6-9 in the country right now (they made 1677).
So yeah, I want one because it's different, because it's crazy, because it looks like NOTHING on the road or at any Cars & Coffee. And if everything goes to plan, I can have the cash to start SERIOUSLY shopping soon. Here are some pics of the car I want and I'll put the other cars in a following post.
