Default Meltdown

I can't find one thing that was done to this car that improved its original design. I would be embarrassed to drive it, but perhaps I'm too old to want to be seen in it. It looks like it was built to attract 14-year-old boys and those who like to play with HotWheels. I do like the instrumentation layout, but the interior color fights the exterior.

As seen on this forum before. Now for sale.
No mention if the thing runs or not!

Going to be interesting to see what it sells at.

Let the bidding begin!

Smile Re: Meltdown

I like the one of a kind mods, the interior color maybe not so much ,ext paint scheme i think looks great. Not

much left on exterior but side stakes and spoiler of original car. Surprised this has not been mention on the

forum before.

Yuck. Awful. Nice craftsmanship, though.

The interior color just does not go well with the exterior.

I'm struggling to find a single thing I like about this car or would consider doing to my own. If you're serious about bidding on that thing then best of luck to you.

As a custom car I find it OK, the interior as FP says is completely wrong, black would have been much better.

I'm not sure I would have the nerve to be seen driving it though.

As always beauty is in the eyes of the beholder...!!!

I'm guessing if you just turned 20, Daddy has money to burn, and your looking to make a statement when driving down Main Street, this is your car...lol...

I'm too old and my heart is too weak to draw that much attention...

Except for the interior color which kinda clashes in my opinion, it looks like they did a nice job on some of the exterior trim...

If nothing else, that engine bay's got two turbos complete with giant wastegates, giant BOVs AND some NOS in it... at least they kept the "fast and the furious" look all the way through the engine bay

If it runs, I'm sure it'd be interesting to check out / hoon (and it's got a stick! at least they didn't screw that up!).

Already outbid! Guess the $2,222 I thought it was worth wasn't enough!

I'm sure they put a lot of time and money into it but I doubt they'll get offered more than $5000 for it. Our cars are just not worth a whole lot of dough.

Seen pics of this car and its engine before. What I heard they had troubles making it to run with all the turbos and what not. For once I actually find it quite nice. Paint it white and change the headlights I would actually consider it. If I would have been about 18 yrs old. Now the original elegance look of a white SRT6 with N/A alloys gives me all the satisfaction I need. But thumbs up for this little bumble bee.

The headlight are combined with the Turbo Intakes, I like them.

Default Custom Crossfire

Here's a different one for the discriminating buyer. Must like Yellow and a ricer look!

There are now at least three threads about this ugly-as-sin car.
