I feel like it's just a winderd workaround answer. Doesn't take away from how good the car may be, but quite frankly, the fact that kind of discussion needs to be pitched clearly is a type of damage control. The EJ has literally existed since 1989.
But on the other hand, I'm not sure if that video is the result of Hagerty being asked to do that, or Hagerty just needing to make content.
The GT300 build is cool. The lights translate perfectly into the wider shape. Reminds me of the HSV-10 — where I wonder backwards, what would that car have looked like in street form? Not to go OT, but I'm still hung up on how cool that could've been if they somehow translated the engine to a street application.
