i've seen it on cardomain. it is basically 100% customized, but it's really ugly and i bet it's well over 3,000 lbs. most of the stuff was unnecessary. like i remember it had a frikkin samurai sword incorporated in to the trunk audio layout

Its not that bad looking, but its way overpriced. I remember when cars went up in value because they campaigned races, not won car shows.

It does look tacky. Its just not my style. Since most of us here are into speed, alot wont like it. But if you were to look at it for what it is, a SHOW CAR, I think it is amazing. Lots of detailed work, and done very very good. Its not like he took it anywhere to get it done. I believe he had everything possbily done that you can get done in it. I say good job on it...

They chromed they subframe! I like the dragons and swords all over everything. Kinda 1970's firebird meets Masters of the Universe.

EDIT: So there is no mistake, that's sarcasm there.

And not even a hardtop.
I could get every single panel replaced with carbon fiber including my rims, rebuild and boost my engine, cover everything in my interior with carbon fiber, and install an automatic buffalo wing maker for less money. Wtf, pride of ownership is one thing, but calling yourself a designer/afficionado/perfectionist is a totally different ballpark. Some people really do live in different worlds.

Although I do respect his determination! The guy could have invested his time in a way better fashion different strokes.

But 125,000? That's nuts in my book
