It would be WAY cheaper to buy a regular 370Z, remove the NAV, climate control, etc. and build it exactly to these specs. That's what Nissan did with this car. Nothing special.
This is for the rich guy that decides on Monday that he wants to go race in World Challenge on Friday. There's nothing wrong with that, but all I am saying is you could build the same thing for FAR less.

Then I have question, do those BMW, CHEVY, FORD, CITROEN race in BTCC, WTCC and WRC worth their cost?
The BMW ONLY put a 320 in BTCC, can you mod a consumer 320i to that spec and beat those factory spec 320? I am pretty sure a street mod 320 will cost much less than buying a BTCC 320.
I am pretty sure you can put same or similar or even better adds-on to a consumer car, however, there are some reasond race teams will spend much more to buy a factory race car.
