What I like about AMS is the car is a true test car. They keep going until something breaks then they improve on it.

Yes. It's a street car with a stock chassis and suspension geometry.

What do you consider it? A Porsche?

With over $1 million invested in it, I'd definitely think so.

Easily over $1M, but that's only because it's their development car. It has been through dozens of engine/turbo/transmission/suspension setups with thousands of labor hours worth of custom fabrication and testing.

Building a GTR in one shot to nearly that level currently will cost less than half that. Ask me how I know...

Almost as fast as the built motor turbo stock chassis 5.0 mustangs that I used to follow in the early 90's.
