Out of all the cars I have sold probarbly the XA coupe was the one I regret selling the most, closely followed by the GT Replica, I only payed 7 grand for it in 2001 and it had GT panels and dash, Geniune centerline rims eletric windows and a worked 460, if I ever get the chance to buy a coupe again, I will build it to the same specs, probarbly only with a clevo though.
