I was under the impression that they werent financing lamborghini a whole bunch, and thats why they took so long to get the new lambo developed, and why the baby Lambo and sucessor to the LM SUV's.

It's not that they didn't have the money. It's that the Indonesian government was overthrown about this time.

The main reason for doing the SRV8 was the Lamborghini engine wasn't available, and a domestic V8 would be easier to homologate than another import. To see 3 photos of the Vector SRV8, check out my Vector website: http://home.adelphia.net/~gunman/vector.html |

Its probably in a barn or ware house somewhere. Like a 959 in Florida, cuz Bill GAtes couldnt import it. Or the 4.5 million dollar Shelby Cobra Daytona, that sat in a storage shed for 20+years.

Vector Files knows his Vectors.
The Agassi car is legendary. Have you ever seen any pix of it after it burnt? I'm curious how messed up it got. I know its on my list of cars I'd like to see, right next to the SRV8 and the Avtech Spyder. |

Correction- There were 35 Vectors made total from the time Weigart started to the time MegaTech gave up. Between the W2, WX2, WX3, W8, M12 and Avtech SC Coupe, they sold 35. The SRV8 was never produced, it was merely a concept.
The Chevy V8 powered the W2, WX2, and WX3. It was twin-turbocharged (the 2 in W2 stood for the number of turbos, the W stood for Weigart) and made up 1100 bhp (the WX3 model). |

Well, given the general state of the company, it is very hard to say exactly how many cars were produced.
This is the same as two cars with the same vin exist, usually racecars. The factory races it, and parts get changed. Some of those are restored, sometimes by the factory (ie, rip the engine/tranny out of that E-type, replace them with new ones. Fix the old ones, put them in a new car). Before anyone knows what happened, there are 2 cars out there with the same vin/racing history. This can create quite a dispute between present owners.

Re: M12
Thats because it only has 3 gears. Its gearbox is easily its worst feature.
And its an automatic; so first can be very tall, because the torque converter does all the slip.
