Makes sense because Honda already has the engine running in the NSX. Would require a rework of the cooling layout since it will be FR instead of MR.

Maybe even the upcoming Ford GT(3) will be the same car but with simpler components for customer teams. Too bad Porsche is not doing this with their new car.

I think Risi bought a GT3 for LM17 and the GTE kit, and had both shipped to LM to build the car themselves on site. Sadly I think the guy who bought them the GT3 car ended up with a bag of bolts and twisted sheet metal with some assembly required after the race. But if you want the racing pedigree you take the risks of racing.

Yeah, £550K is about €630k, insanely expensive considering that new 2019 R8 price tag is about €400k. Anyway this car is basically a 2018 vantage GTE with some different parts.... very expensive for a gt3, quite cheap for a GTE.
Guess you should be a rich and big AMR fan to buy new vantage gt3.

The other convertible GT3-GTE car, the Ferrari, is also expensive. Around the same price of the Aston.
