Default Fox Marketing Twin Turbo IS F Gets Crushed

That's the business of marketing....everyone gets a write off, no one gets to keep the prize.

Does anyone know if the IS F that was built by Five Axis has been crushed yet? Last time I talked to Troy (like maybe 1.5 years ago), he said it was gonna go make one more round and then head to the crusher

Unhappy

Yeup...

Any manufacturer media / pre-production cars that enter the USA with VINs that can not be registered with the DMV, usually end up being crushed..!!

They can only be used temporarily for approx. 3 years..

Truly a sad day...


From time to time in rare instances, they can end up in a museum permanently...
