    The first vehicle is a Hagglunds BV-206. They are made in Sweden and are fairly amphibious (they float but are only pushed along by the tracks in water). They usually have a Ford V6 and drive the rear body through a hydraulic connection. They'll do about 55km/h on-road and are used by a number of different armed forces around the world.

    There is a place in Yellowknife that deals with them: http://www.arctictracks.com/forsale.html
    I don't know what they are asking for them though. I've seen them being sold in Europe in the $60-70,000 range.

    Same here, I saw that exact same 7 on glenmore last week. It's always been my favorite car to drive in my racing simulator and I can't wait to get one in real life.

    Here's the Caterham in my sim:

    I visited this shop on Vancouver Island a few weeks ago:
    http://www.super7cars.com/about%20us.html
    The Hayabusa-powered cars are insane.

    They had a car from Calgary in the shop - it looked like the one in the photo above.

    to the Fait. I was driving behind one a couple weeks ago, and all I could think was if i rear-ended it, it would be an improvement....
