I know. It's just what I want. It is technically possible, but would require all carbon fiber monocoque, aluminum , magnesium . . . not a piece of iron or steel. With full-tilt yankee now how, I think it might even possible for less than $100k if engineered from scratch.

I'm only suggesting a direction. What I want, is Ford Corvette.

Probably just end up with something nice like a Panoz, which is the closest to what I described.
