Damnit. I would like one of these a lot. A lot, lot.

200,000 euros is a lot lot.

Could I justify spending even 1/4 of that on 'just' an engine? Probably not, but there must be enough people out there who think that it is a good idea.

I like the history of the 4 cam but just too complex. Unsurprising the flat 6 replaced them as the preferred racing engine.

If money were no object GT pushrod speedster please!
