Guess it's using the VW 1.8T motor, mid engine, in I would assume RWD, or possibly the quattro AWD system. But look at the weight of this thing... 1290lbs!!! Company is called 'YES!' and the model is the 'club sport.' Kind of wierd, but I'd get it if it were affordable, which I'm guessing it's not. I've done some internet searching and haven't found very much info on it.

There's some better pics. Thing is wild, but I like the rear fenders on it. Now if it was under $30k and not considered an exotic, then I'd be seriously interested.

While you are there, dig around in this magazine. Lots of interesting stuff. As you change languages, the cars presented changes.

Whups, that's more like $44k american, not $36k. Getting more expensive than it's worth I think. To get it shipped over here tagged, taxed, and titled, would be around $50k-ish I think. And then why not get an M3 or a Skyline?
