That's cool. It's sort of like a GTam on steroids.

Wow, I bet the stereo in that car play only Rick Astley and Samantha Fox...

It's the physical form of everything I dislike of the eighties. :shock:

I saw a Testarossa in town tonight btw. :)

Oh, I feel bad about bagging something that somebody has clearly put a LOT of effort and money into, and I bet it sounded great when spec'ed out on paper, but that is really... wrong :?: .

Kudos for the cojones for putting it together though - and if it goes fast enough, almost anything can be forgiven visually (case in point, almost any of the Group B rally monsters are beautiful, even the hideously f'ugly ones, simply because of what they are and how they go)

Maybe a set of stripes ala the flying brick could work wonders (not that MD's weapon is a f'ugly... of course :lol: )

LOVE the wheels.
I can even live with the side elevation. (seen plenty worse).

Such a shame the front and rear view just don't work. I can just imagine the amount of work to do this.

Sorry Jason but no amount stripes, bullseye targets or beer transfers will fix this sucker.

I like the idea, don't get me wrong, it's just that it isn't, in my opinion, well translated into reality.
It's like the doors, bonnet, trunk lid don't match the widened body...it's just plain weird...
I love the wheels though :D

I can appreciate how much work it was for someone to create that. I can't really decide if I like it or not, I would have to see it in person. In the picture, it looks like the flares are a little "too much". Of course that's probably the intent of the design. In any case, I am sure it attracts a lot of attention. If it has the muscle to back up the huge fenders, than I am all for it!
