I'm thinking a Nissan Patrol Shorty lifted 4" on 35's would be awesome so I've been looking at those (with no real intention to buy in the near future. That being said, this looks pretty awesome and there are 3 for sale right now!

Holy spitballs, Batman! That second one looks like a "Rambo Lambo" LM002. Rare beastie if it is not a kit-car version; they only made around 300 of them:

Is it really all that surprising coming from an auto manufacturer whose primary vehicles (at least originally) are tractors and other off road farming machines?

Incidentally, "Countach" means something in the line of "holy cow" and was given the name when the wraps were first pulled off the new prototype and one of the workers from the farming division exclaimed "Countach!" That's what I heard, anyway.

I want to know which kit-car donor chassis also had 8 stud hubs, or alternatively which kit-car manufacturer had that much attention to detail.

Also, I want the BMW Z1. By all accounts they're dull to drive, but winding down the doors to get out would be a hoot.
