Easy,turn it into a race car.It's obvious where most of the money went.TRD engines aren't just llaying around waiting to be picked up.And the parts they built it with aren't something you can get with a single call,unless your best friends with someone like Tsuchiya.Then you can pull a few strings and get a hold of it.

Cool vid, but 125000 USD?
That's almost 900000 SEK, with that kind of money one could buy something far more superior than "A souped up Corolla";-).

He must really like the car.
