If you're looking to be noticed, photographed, stared at and multiple thumbs-up everywhere you go this is the car for you.

I'll admit it doesn't look bad, but wtf? 140 hp?

If your gonna build something like that and spend that kind of money you would think you would build it to have at least the same hp if not more.

I was actually expecting MUCH worse.

The front end isn't bad at all...lol

I mean come, coming from an 86 Fiero, the end product is pretty good considering everything!

lol

Regardless, this is some very good, talented work!

That said, I wouldn't pay $30K for a 23 yr-old Fiero with a 140-hp engine.

But still, impressive work and labor! How many of you can do that? Most of the public would think this is some very fancy, exotic car when they see it.

Well, in any case, the owner should've added at least a bit more horsepower, so whoever drives this won't look like an idiot when his revs sound like farts.

I'd get a Cobra replica instead. Or put the money towards a Noble.
