rep·li·ca:A copy or reproduction. Copy that is not the original; something that has been copied.
Since no such beast as a Porsche 959 Spyder ever existed (race car or otherwise), this car is actually a repiica of NOTHING; just someone's sad interpretation of a nonexistant car. A POS kit car ... nothing more.
Good luck trying to get the "rare" car licensed at the local DMV with a VIN# like that! If someone tried to register a car with VIN like that in Hawaii, odds are it would be confiscated by the DMV. No manufacturer has a number like that.
On further reading it states it is registered in NY as a 1990. A 1990 what? I guess in NY they are not as stringent on the NHTSA an Federal laws pertaining to vehicle construction and registration. Caveat Emptor.
