Frank S Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 I didn't see where they mentioned what year Pebble Beach the debut took place. I saw one like this at the Friday Night Race Legal drag races (San Diego Qualcomm Stadium) in 2007 or 2006. It seemed to be carefully put together, but the whole thing seems like a charm for a very expensive bracelet (c.f.: Jay Leno). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HARALD KELLEY Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Very cool for what it is. No replacement for displacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
03 DSG Snake Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Wish they used a different 'donor' car... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephen_becker Posted September 1, 2014 Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 This was not built by a SAI Dealer so wishing it was a different doner car doesn't work. It was ordered and sold thru DenBeste in northern California to the tech company in SF who then did the designed work and install There are 10 CSX 9000 coupes on order for this company with an additional 90 cars planned Looks allot better then a Volt or a Tesla.............

shack Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 Saw this on CNN yesterday - this is the exact idea I've been germinating for a while. Don't have the funds to build one yet. Also was looking more at the Factory Five cars as a base So, 100 cars @529K apiece; wonder what their investment cost is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hawkins Posted October 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 Wow, that's a lot of cars! They will be lucky to sell 20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobjshelbys Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 They will be lucky to sell 20. Even 10 would be a huge boost to the CSX9000 numbers. I've seen a couple of them here locally and they are gorgeous cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilmor Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 I don't think it will sound right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Hawkins Posted October 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 I don't think it will sound right. They can just "Pipe In" the same Engine Sound that Ford is doing with the 2015 4 Cyl Mustang. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
