Given the value of the car, I wouldn't think that AMG would make any permanent changes to it that would affect their ability to resell it once their development work was completed. It's almost shocking that they would spend the kind of money one assumes would be necessary for a development car like an F1 GTR, but seeing how they probably knew they could recoup the investment it's not so bad.

Unfortunatly I can't see the no.59 picture anymore.
I found a scanned
wheels article, which said it's Brunei's replica.
Sorry, if it's a repost
