Any car that makes Tiff Needel scream "LET'S PARTY" is a epic car

Can Toyota make a car which looks 80% like this Pagoni Zonda R and put in a 1.6L I4 that revs to 10000 rpm and price it at $20k? I would buy it instantly, but only under one condition, jack the car up so I could actually drive it without having to own a racetrack.

This Zonda weighs around 2360lbs. The 599XX weighs over 2900lbs. While they're both based off of Road cars, this is far more of a race car than what the 599XX is. Not only that, but this is a chassis with another make's engine, Mercedes. Ferrari's 599XX is all 100% Ferrari. On top of it all, it wasn't Ferrari's official test driver to set the lap time at the Nurburgring either. I think someone who has more experience with the 599XX and the Ring can be closer to the Zonda R. Awesome car though, but I'd rather have the 599XX as you actually get to race it in a Ferrari spec series.
