Rockstar and West Coast Customs built a real Vice City supercar, and it's yours for a million

So Rockstar apparently got together with West Coast Customs and built an actual, drivable version of one of the supercars from GTA 6. Not a render, not a showpiece sitting behind glass at some event. A car. With a price tag of around a million, which is a genuinely absurd number to type out loud.
I've been staring at this for a minute trying to figure out who the buyer is. Because the crossover between "has a spare million for a novelty car" and "is hyped enough about Vice City to want the novelty car" has to be tiny. That's a very specific guy. Probably owns a boat. Probably already has a Countach poster framed somewhere.
Still, as a marketing move it's kind of perfect. Rockstar doesn't do a ton of this stuff. They drop a trailer, they go quiet, they let the internet chew on it. Then out of nowhere they're putting a real supercar into the world with a custom shop known for exactly this kind of build. It's the most Vice City thing they could've done short of renting out Miami for a weekend.
the build itself is the interesting part
I'm way more curious about how it actually came together than the sticker price. West Coast Customs doesn't mess around with one-off builds, so there's a real car under there somewhere, and I want to know what it started as. What got changed. Whether it's street legal or if it's the kind of thing you trailer to a show and never take through a drive-thru.
Also, does it come with anything else? Plates, a plaque, a little note from Rockstar? For a million I'd want the whole package, honestly. Throw in a keychain shaped like a palm tree or something.
Anyway, it's a fun bit of hype two weeks out from launch. Feels like the marketing is finally waking up after all the pre-order and framerate talk.
If you had the money lying around, would you actually buy something like this, or is it the kind of thing that just lives in a garage and never gets driven?
