I think it would have been better if it was a little lower , but they have em high for added downforce i think.

That was Johnny Cecotto driving an Irmscher V8 Omega in the German V8 Stars Championship in 2002/2003.

I know where you can buy one:

Title: Re: Beautiful?
Post by: Danny on 03 October 2007, 18:41:18
it most likely would for me!!
Title: Re: Beautiful?
Post by: omegalord on 03 October 2007, 18:44:25
does anybody know if it a bodykit or just a one off ?
Title: Re: Beautiful?
Post by: miggy on 03 October 2007, 18:46:38
More than likely a one off.

Irmscher used to do a body kit for the standard car, but no more, I have tried.

I wonder if a good bodyshop with the photo of it could replcate it ?

Matt
Title: Re: Beautiful?
Post by: miggy on 03 October 2007, 18:55:21
No doubt they could, but it would be big bucks.

It would look good though

Title: Re: Beautiful?
Post by: Danny on 03 October 2007, 18:55:53
quite possibly, would cost you more than the car itself though! ;D
Title: Re: Beautiful?
Post by: omegalord on 03 October 2007, 19:00:04
Well,

my house sold this week. I have put aside £15k for a car. In turmoil whether to buy a new car or to do a project car(a dream of mine). I bet £15k would be more than enough to do an omega of a lifetime!

Matt  :)

would be a fantastic thing to do, but that's something you'd need to really really want, as it definately wont hold its value

Probably wouldnt cost more than a couple of thousand for a bodyshop to make one up very similar. And when you consider how much some bodykits are , its not that bad.
