The specification looks great. The car itself looks the part. If WGT will stand by the car, the figures and their work, then it may be worth a go. Are you actually looking for Rex's though> I thought you had one on the way?

I can only imagine that this must be a very focused car for road driving, backed up by the current owner bailing out after only a few weeks.

If you are tempted, for Gods sake, get a specialist to inspect it.

Hmm, yeah it is a great looking car but I couldnt really say whether it is worth 22k.

The engine spec is good and should be backed up by WGT.

But very few cars eg Skylines, RX7s, Supras etc sell for that much money these days.

Just be aware that the white car is a serious machine and brings with it much more increased running costs. A standard Rex is pretty thirsty, one with 580 bhp and 1600cc injectors must drink like crazy !

They are both pretty unique, suppose it really depends whether you want serious performance (and the running costs associated with it) or a serious looker (referring to yours).

It is a tricky one, I think my problem would be that I like the white one but I'd be too tempted to change bits on it eg bodykit and the rear wing, then I might aswell have bought one 10k less !!!

Nice car - but like Gareth has commented if you are talking daily driver - then expect big bills - I remember a highly modified one that was for sale a while back - the guy spent of fortune doing it up - then sold it as he simply couldn't justify the running costs.
