Holy smokes, throwback alert—someone just dropped an insanely accurate tribute to The Wraith’s infamous Dodge M4S Turbo Interceptor on eBay, and it’s blowing minds. Built by gearhead Jay Winne and his crew, this Frankenstein-ish dream machine mashes a 2001 Porsche Boxster S’s guts with the sci-fi swagger of the ‘80s flick’s street-legal spaceship.
Starting with a mid-engine Porsche wasn’t just some random pick. Nope, Winne stretched the chassis by four inches like some automotive plastic surgeon, keeping the beefy 3.2-liter flat-six engine and manual gearbox—because obviously, you gotta row your own gears in a beast like this. The result? A road-hugging weapon that looks ripped straight from the silver screen but won’t leave you stranded when the grocery run beckons.
And man, the details. Hand-sculpted body panels mimic the M4S’s jagged edges, while scissor doors swing open like some Lambo’s angry cousin. Glowing perimeter lights? Check. A rear plate lit up like a neon arcade sign? Double check. They even nabbed a windshield from a Ferrari 512 BBi because normal glass just wouldn’t cut it.
Step inside, and it’s part tech-lair, part ‘80s time capsule. Diamond-stitched Audi R8 seats got Chrysler badges slapped on for irony points, while a digital dash and fiber-optic “starlight” ceiling scream Blade Runner on a budget. And hey, actual air conditioning means you won’t melt chasing down bad guys in July.
Here’s the kicker: this might be the only street-legal Wraith replica out there. The original film cars? Mostly trashed during filming. The real M4S? Never hit production. So for half a mil, you’re not just buying a car—you’re grabbing a cursed slice of cult-movie history, now idling in East Peoria and begging for a high-speed desert chase. Somebody call Charlie Sheen.
