the car is basically taken from the assembly line half built...torn apart, and re-welded to N1 specs.

the motor is built and balanced to N1 specs.

$52k is pretty cheap for a race car.

yeah...more traction in the rear on a FWD car

besides...no one said the rear tires are wider so it doesn't really mean it has better traction with a larger wheel, just more unsprung weight....

i dont see how 52k for a race car is cheap.. by any means its cheap in a collectors sense maybe. but not as a race car.. in any sense the worthyness of the cost is in the rareness factor and i bet anyhting that car wouldnt sell for anything more than 25k in japan if that. and n1 spec motors are pretty much nothing more then what spoon does to there motors anyways, rebalanced, there very limited in what they can do to the motor.

what does that matter.. that cars a rip off. if you do some research you can find or even build a car to n1 spec for cheaper. look on yahoo auctions japan.. theres n1 cars on there often enough.. it may not have the spoon paint job but its built to exact same tolerances and you can purchase it and import it for race reasons for way less.
