I’ve seen this car twice now, and I don’t recognize it. Any thoughts oppo?
Update: Scoob solved it, it's a Factory Five 818 kit car, based off of a WRX.

No idea either - looks like a kit car of some sort.

It’s some kind of kit car, I’ve seen a white one at Autocross once run in STR but the car type is blank in the results, I remember the guy trailered it there. If I remember correctly the front end sort of looked similar to an Eclipse.

I’ll go with the Factory Five, also the location of New England OPPO’s meetup over the summer.

That's what scoob suggested, and it seems to be correct.

Nope, better. It’s mid engined.

Iirc it’s MR. The orientation of the engine/transmission is the same, it’s just in the back.
you could attach a driveshaft and have a powered trailer I guess?

It's a factory five kit car, the 818.

Subaru drivetrain layout. For the 818 you use the engine and trans, and they make a blocker plate to eliminate the driveshaft to the rear. Then you mount this thing behind the seats and viola! rear-mid-engine roadster! It’s basically a baby Boxster.

The Factory 5 818C looks awesome. Owning one is now on my bucket list. If only I had the skills to build one.
HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles

I think the only kit car I'd bother building would be a 356 coupe.
