how much were they wanting for that car?  i know it was really high.  i'd love to see the T3 turbo setup and all of the other prototype stuff it has.  i wonder what it would do at the strip?

seems wierd seeing a 1st GEN W-body sitting among a bunch of classic muscle cars lol.  i wonder how many miles it has.

It has 13,000 original miles on it.

I thought this car still had a T-25 on it and the major difference in it vs. ours was the water to air intercooler + tuning. I think Jay and some others have seen in it person, so maybe they can answer that for sure. If anything, I would think the Red 300hp 5spd prototype would be the one with the T3 in it...


EDIT: Pretty sure the red prototype is the T3 car as it looks a little different underhood(I'll upload a picture in a second to show what I mean ;)).

EDIT #2: Hope Jim doesn't mind, I cropped out part of the proto picture he has hosted and brightened up the engine bay to see the turbo area.

Yep the red 5 spd 300 HP is a T3.  That is the coolest prototype IMO.
