I don't trust those photos to be recent, if they are or if the car is still in the same condition then it's a steal.

Didn't know that they made a 4x4 4 door version

yup we just sadly never got a BPT AWD BG chassis offering stateside, the BPT does drop right in though.

Yep. Here, they were all SOHC 1.8s. Quite underwhelming to drive, but a good platform for someone who wants to build an oddity.

so if the US didn't get the 4wd....where'd that one in Philly come from?

We did, we just didn't get the turbo BP variants. Just this neutered SOHC.

So will Swank be doing a BPT swap or trying an F2T swap into it?

I'd kill the turbo Miata we have now and stick the built BP + turbo in this.

However... the ad is a scam. Don't think that's a 4wd pictured. DX badging pretty clear on fenders.

That's a current-gen minivan in the background. I think it's current.
