...this particular F50? pics or specs? Looks like it has had extensive mods under the body, but it is still road-legal...

Yes! I knwo a little about this car.

Once in a thread far far away, there were shots of many hyper exoctis (Eb 110 SS, Betley EX Speed 8, Porsche 996 GT1) and such outside the Ritz Paris I believe, thsi car was there. I know it has a sticker on the rear windscreen that says either " _______ College" or University of ____" I forget what the actual facility was, but it's a white sticker of some US institution. as far as I knwo the black air intake was just used to feed some extra air, but I heard that a long time ago and hardly can remember. It is street legal though.

The car looks simply spectacular.

Whoa! Thanks mini magic!

Do you know any specs? Like I said, it looks like it has been extensively modified. If you have pics of other modified F50s please please post some!
