Again, THAT car is a 450. And though it's not side saddle, I don't think you have much usability as a street car.
If you're so enamored as to what a Haybusa does in a four wheeled car, take a look at my avatar. In a sub-1300 lb Radical the straight line performance is about on par with a quickish street car.

Side saddle = engine installed in stock passenger seat area.
However their 450 subframe is or may be adapted to a 451, the engine intrudes significantly into the passenger compartment.
I just don't think the performance is there, relative to the cost involved. When I have a passenger in the Radical, bringing it to about 1500 lbs, the thing is just lethargic. And that's when you're already in the powerband at 8-10.5K.
