I've got a great son-in-law. He sent me this link about a new Speedster replica in Australia. It's powered by a Subaru WRX engine and available in a mid-engine configuration. It looks like it may eventually be available outside of Australia.

Pretty cool. I like the ones that come from Canada, always wanted one with AC and PW.

Screw James Dean!

Very cool... bulging fenders and all. An STI engine would be crazy in that.

I wanna do a 550 Spyder kit some day. Like this...

120+hp with the original style suspension was a handfull back then...and now. Hopefully they did some upgrades as well.

Otherwise it's just another straight line rocketship.....

I'm with you; I think that 550's are really cool and dream of building one.
