What's the closest thing to a racecar you can buy in BC?
It's a pretty broad question, I know. But what's the closest thing to a street legal race car of any type you can buy in BC and put a license plate on?
New or used.
I don't think you can get an Ariel Atom here. Curious what else is out there.

Lotus Exige.
Once in a while the lotus dealer in Vancouver will get in some money laundering special in and they charge stupid money for it. I bought a better car in the UK than the one I saw there at half the price (but obviously there's a lot of hassle involved) but 8500rpm with a super charger right behind you is bad ass.
I think the new Emira with the v6 is going to be amazing as well.
Otherwise, buy a used gt3 car and just trailer it.
Just remember, the closer it is to being a race car, the less driveable it will be on the road.

Spec Miatas can be plated, and they can look entirely unassuming on the outside to not attract any attention.
A gentleman at VCMC used to have an Ultima GTR that he built himself. It was plated and everything.
F5 818S is street legal too in Canada too.

Oh man, I remember seeing an Ultima pull in back when I was a gas jockey in W.Van (2000). That thing was like an LMP2 car.

They aren't *really* road legal, but stage rally cars are plated.

Probably Kalson’s old exige S lol. I also came in here to say any of the stage rally cars but you win.
I guess Charles wong and his actual Ferrari race car is technically the winner

Street legal Ariel Atom has been done in BC. That would be my first choice and Viper ACR as close second.
