with people already bringing in examples for race-use only, im sure there will be at least a few rich folk heading out to buy one, but hey i could be wrong.
That's true. Do you mean the price of compliance for the buyer, or the price of compliance to be able to comply it?
Of course the cost for the buyer will be high, but if you can afford an R35 in the first place, you can probably afford compliance on such a vehicle.
Only time will tell I guess.
