Before the S102.5 project was announced, there was an article in RCE called "Unfulfilled promise" about the S102.
Quote:
'There are still some enquiries about this car,' revelas Hiroshi Yuchi, project manager at Dome. 'Mainly we talk to teams from Europe, but it is difficult to make it happend because the exchange rate is not good, and this is an expensive car anyway.'

The S102 was not designed for privateers. For instance, it has a carbon fibre bellhousing and very complex, difficult to debug electronics.
