Sorry to be all curmudgeony and hey-you-kids-get-off-my-lawny. But NASCAR has been stupid and boring ever since “stock cars” became racing cars with nothing in common with anything anyone drives on the street, with only a fake rough approximation of a production car body on the outside.

It looks like you could stand up in maybe one location, given that the highest headroom part is mostly pointlessly over the kitchen counter.
Walking over the hill from the Haight to Castro back then I came across one just like that, with the stripes and the BMW roundel on the front. I assumed it was made in Europe in association with BME. Why else use a probably super expensive engine prone to need super expensive repairs using super expensive parts? Given…
Two or three years of depreciation might be plenty.
Erik claimed both engines were in-line, not V’s.
I’m guessing that they are configurable.
