Has anyone ordered and/or taken delivery of a MINI Challenge car

Anyone seen one at a dealer or know of anyone actually purchasing one of these?

The order form is here: http://www.mini.com/com/en/mini_jcw_...order_form.pdf

The cost: 41,930 Euros = 61,465.187 U.S. dollars

I'm sure that doesn't include delivery fees, VAT if applicable, etc.

No VAT for US but one would have to pay sales tax.

These cars have no VIN and are NOT legal to be street driven.

If you are seriously interested in purchasing one then the dealer to contact is Hendrix in NC or the AZ based Penske owned dealer. They both have made it known they would be interested in sales and support of a MINI Race Series. They are legal for BMW-CCA Club racing as well.
