Kind of gives you an idea of how the TC would look like with Lambo style doors

interesting read. I personally am not a fan of lambo doors but some of the other ideas in there are very good.

Another interesting note is that it is AWD,, using a RAV4 drivetrain parts. I wonder if that would work on a TC too?
TO much cash and time to spend on an average Joe's ride but it sure would make a cool SIMA car.... AWD Supercharged TC with dihedral/Lambo style doors

Oh sorry it's Sportivo not Sportiva ether way the name sucks Tc is so much better. I wonder if they'll make something similar.....?

Same engine as the tC, but turbocharged with a GT25. 241hp @ 5500rpm and 224lb-ft @ 4500 rpm. Not too shabby.

Similar proportions to the tC, but the Sportivo looks substantially smaller.

I love the gauges. I want those for my tC.
