Although it does appear to be a road race car, you might try the Civic forum. I'm guessing someone there will recognize it.

Looks like a shop/(trade)show car that has the track/race look, probably a 5-Zigen dealer. Appearance forum might know too.

I'm noticing:
1) Tinted rear windows even though they appear to be plexi/lexan.
2) No cage.
3) Passenger side Bride seat.
4) No number panel, sanctioning body, class identifiers, etc.
5) Parking permit/air freshner hanging from rear view.

Haha, very observant.

My guess would be the same. Probably a 5-zigen dealer's show car.

It was AKT USA's show car before they were bought out by 5Zigen. The car supposely had a B18C stroked to 2 liters if i remember correctly. It made a lot of appearences at local and tradeshows. Last I heard...the car was stolen from the parking lot right outside of AKT's shop. sad.

of course...this was a couple of years ago. around 1998 or so.
