Some of you are looking into significant performance modifications so I thought I'd bring back the Bonneville Special from 2010.
Suzuki America commissioned Richard Holdener and Tom Habrzyk of Advanced Product Engineering to build a 200+ mph Kizashi. It has over 513whp and 515tq with forced induction (16 psi) and built internals and was driven by Road & Track editor Sam Mitani.
Aside from brief articles, I was never able to find many details about it. Perhaps you guys will be more persistent!

While the kizashi is somewhat heavy it Is a very aerodynamic car for it's class. Brick maybe but an aerodynamic brick .
