This is the JC Indigo built in Sweden in the late 90's with a 3 litre Volvo
6-cyl engine. I've seen a few of them at car shows in Sweden (like the
Gardesloppet where I came 4th this year-- first time out!!)

so do I get a medal or something?

So I know that Panoz developed teh Esperante and this website with a
new Tiger does look to be built on the same platform, so the question
is whether Panoz is supplying someong to do a Tiger varient, is this
just a spoof page, or did someone photoshop a Panoz to stimulate market
reaction to a new Tiger??? I'll be asking for more info on it.
